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 terminated at any time without any obligation of recurrence. We have established no regulations for this—no application is required at the start, nor any formal acceptance on our part; likewise, termination requires no declaration of cancellation, no notice period, and no confirmation of cancellation. Donations are made voluntarily—the timing, amount, and recurrence are decided solely by the donors.

Information on donation receipts

Simplified proof of donation for up to €300 per payment: For donations of up to €300 per payment, the bank transfer receipt is sufficient for the tax office as a donation receipt, provided that our confirmation is attached (download here, PDF, 164 KB). We do not issue individual donation receipts: this reduces our administrative and postage costs and contributes to environmental protection. For donations exceeding €300, we automatically send an annual donation receipt in February of the following year, provided we have a complete and current postal address. For corporate entities, individual donation receipts are issued after receipt of payment, provided we have a complete and current postal address.
