Visa sponsorship for visiting family (not-reunification)

Dear all,

A person in my family had a long Schengen which will expire soon. Can I help in any way as a sponsor/voucher during the application for a new long-term (5-years) visa?

I am a non-EU resident in Switzerland.

All I could find was related to visits under 30 days or so.

Thank you for any information you may have.
