He sat in Geneva as a representative of the "World Pioneer" movement and was a contact person and a source of financial aid for the Jews. He corresponded with hundreds of people in the occupied countries and worked in many fields, including sending packages through the Red Cross, mainly to Poland and transferring money by messengers he recruited for this purpose. Schwalb tried to maintain contact with the activists of the "Pioneer" movement in the territories occupied by the Nazis, to give them help and to collect and disseminate information about what was happening in these territories regarding the Jews. Among other things, he received reports from Gizzy Fleishman on the situation of the Jews in Slovakia.
