Swisspaddle and the Léman Hope Foundation
A hopeful collaboration
At Swisspaddle, we firmly believe that solidarity and sport have the power to change lives. That is why we are proud to collaborate with the Léman Hope Foundation, an organisation that provides support and inspiration to children and young people in remission from cancer.
By joining forces, our mission is to raise funds, offer memorable experiences and bring our community together around a cause that is close to our hearts.

Swim4Lémanhope: Safety and commitment on Lake Geneva
Swisspaddle plays an essential role in the success of this iconic event in our region. Our Stand Up Paddle instructors, accompanied by dedicated volunteer paddlers, ensure the safety of swimmers throughout the crossings. Their expertise and vigilance guarantee that each participant can enjoy this experience in the best possible conditions.
André Perret, director of Swisspaddle, coordinates all the paddlers on their swimming lanes during the event with passion and precision. Thanks to his leadership, each team benefits from optimal supervision, ensuring smooth and safe organisation.
