Who are we

Who are we

The campaign “1019.ch – Help for war victims in Ukraine” was launched by four members of the student fraternity AB Glanzenburger from Zurich. When they discussed the war two days after the Russian invasion of Ukraine – startled by the TV images – they suddenly realized how close it was happening. Thus the name of the action was born: 1019 – the distance in kilometers from the AB Glanzenburger’s home in Zurich to the Ukrainian border.
