CHF 5 for every original

For every original linocut print sold by RC prints, CHF 5 goes to the übrig association. From 1 December 2026, the same applies to every 3D model sold by RC prints. As for every patron, our rules for patrons apply: name and logo, no link and no advertising.

What the money is for

übrig wants to bring good food from kitchens to people who need a warm meal the same evening, instead of throwing it away. One evening with the e-cargo bike costs eleven francs. On top of that come cool boxes, thermal boxes and labels. The contribution from RC prints helps to cover these costs once the pilot starts.

To be open about it

RC prints is the studio of Richard Červenka in Bern. He also founded the übrig association. We say this here so that it is clear who is behind the support. The contribution comes from RC prints’ sales revenue.

Lend a hand yourself

You can join as a kitchen, order food as an institution, or contribute. How it works is on the übrig home page under “Unterstützen” (support).
