Support Usthi with SPONSI

Usthi can now also be supported when you are shopping. According to our partner SPONSI this works like this:

“No matter whether you are buying shoes, ordering pizza or a hairdresser – with every purchase an amount of the purchase price goes to a Beneficiary selected by you: an association, an NPO / NGO, a foundation or a federation. Completely free of charge and without any obligations, you can automatically do good when shopping in the future – without paying more. The only requirement is to be a member of Sponsi”.
