We need more financing and volunteers to stay on track to open September 24!
Now we need your help to realise this project or there is a good chance that we will not make it and the Baumhaus project COULD BE EFFECTIVELY OVER unless there is another miracle out there waiting for us…
Contribute to our crowd funding until August 9 :: Volunteer to help build until September 20 (See below for links and details)
So, if you know the project and you can help us make it happen, then now is the time to help!
If you do not know the project yet, then we invite you to check it out. We are building an indoor tree house (Das Baumhaus) as an event and project space (meetings, workshops, co-working, project development, social gatherings etc…) for people in Berlin who want to get active in making Berlin and the world a better, more balanced and more sustainable place… everyday! A special space for people who want to have fun but get some practical good things done together. https://www.baumhausberlin.de/en/
During the last 4 years, over 300 people built the project together with more than 15000 hours of volunteering, legal planning and gathering 92,000€ worth of financing. Now is the last step where we need support from the community to actually, finally make it happen.
There are 2 important ways to help now and over the next 7 weeks to keep the dream alive:
Action NOW
Make a donation in any amount to our crowd-funding campaign before the end of the day Tuesday August 9.
https://www.startnext.com/en/baumhausberlin
If we can get a total of 15,000€ until August 9 then we get the money and can continue financing the project so that we can open September 24. With over 11,000€ to it may seem like an impossible task but it’s not too late!
Consider this quest as a metaphore similar to dealing with global warming, we have very little time to solve this problem and we need to get as many people as possible to contribute to the cause.
Your contribution now is a concrete step in making a better world a reality by providing a space to connect, engage, empower, inspire, activate and give visibility to the idea of collaboration across cultural, social, economic and other boundaries.
DURING THE NEXT 7 WEEKS
Volunteer to help paint, build installations, make lighting installations, do finishing work with wood, work on mosaics, help make clay walls, cook for volunteers, take photos and videos of the process, help develop the event programming for the first month of our opening plus a bunch of other stuff.
We work everyday form 10 in the morning until 7 in the evening. Go to this page, pick a week to help and sign up:
