Whether you wish to support us with a one-off donation, repeatedly, or indeed on a regular basis – we welcome any amount, small or large. We have tiered our contribution levels and invite you to envision assembling a school of fish according to your own ideas, to swim in our ElasmOcean.

Regular donations

Regular donations can be set up, modified, or discontinued at any time without any ongoing obligation. We have established no formal regulations for this process: no initial application or acceptance on our part is required to start, and no notice of termination, cancellation period, or confirmation of cancellation is required to end. The donation is made voluntarily, with the timing, amount, and frequency determined solely by the donor.

Note regarding donation receipts

Vereinfachter Zuwendungsnachweis up to €300 per payment: For donations of up to €300 per payment, the bank transfer receipt is sufficient for the Finanzamt as a donation receipt, provided that our confirmation is attached.

We do not issue donation receipts as a standard practice: this allows us to avoid administrative and postage costs while simultaneously contributing to environmental protection. For contributions exceeding €300, we automatically send an annual donation receipt by February of the following year at the latest, provided we have a complete and up-to-date postal address. Companies receive individual donation receipts after payment has been received, provided a complete and up-to-date postal address is available.
