Local services, real impact - how neighborhood assistance in Switzerland is becoming more sustainable

In a world where everything is becoming faster, more global, and more anonymous, there is a growing desire for genuine contact. People want to know who is helping them and, at the same time, do good by conserving resources. This is exactly where KnowS comes in: a platform that makes neighborhood assistance digitally visible, secure, and easy.

Whether it's moving house, gardening, tutoring, or childcare, KnowS shows that sustainability in everyday life starts small: with trust, community, and local engagement.

 

Thinking sustainably means acting locally

Many people talk about climate protection, but real change happens in everyday life.

When neighbors support each other instead of traveling long distances or making new purchases, the effect is sustainable.

An example:
Those who share a drill or find help with moving through KnowS not only save money, but also avoid transportation, material consumption, and CO₂ emissions.

Looking ahead

Sustainability often begins where you least expect it:

A person who gives private lessons strengthens education in the neighborhood.

A helper who does the shopping relieves families and reduces trips.

A gardener who works locally saves travel and promotes biodiversity.

Every booking on KnowS shows that help can be meaningful, environmentally friendly, and humane.

KnowS is more than a platform; it is a network that strengthens local cycles. Every request, every ad, every successful booking connects people who take responsibility for themselves, their region, and the environment.

This creates a movement that rethinks sustainability: less consumption, more cooperation.
