Bongiovi gives back
The secret's in the Bongiovi
Why we donate
For the Bongiovi family, good food was always something to share. Even the great-grandmother always cooked enough for the whole neighbourhood. In the USA the family is behind the JBJ Soul Foundation and “Soul Kitchen,” where everyone eats, whether or not they can pay. We carry that spirit on here in Switzerland.
Who we support
We support DaN Basel, a non-profit, non-denominational association from Basel. Since 2008, DaN has handed out food and everyday products to people in need free of charge every week – without red tape and with a lot of humanity. In 2020 the association received the Swiss Peace Award. It was exactly this direct, honest help on the ground that we wanted to support.
With every Bongiovi product, you support a company that regularly gives something back – through monetary and in-kind donations to organisations in the region and beyond.

How your purchase helps
Help is needed in many places – which is why we deliberately spread our support across several organisations and choose those who need it most at the time. Sometimes that's a food bank, sometimes a facility for children, animal welfare, or the fight against food waste.
Real. Honest. Bongiovi.
