The Arizona Swiss Society

A community 70+ years in the making.

Founded in 1951, the Arizona Swiss Society is a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving Swiss culture and fostering community among Swiss nationals, Swiss-Americans, and friends of Switzerland living in Arizona.

We organize five major events each year alongside year-round activities through our Jass Club, Cooking Club, and Hiking Group.

Through our sister organization, the Arizona Swiss Foundation, we award academic scholarships to students of Swiss descent pursuing higher education.
