We have received a great deal of support in the form of in-kind or capital contributions in order to realize and operate a specific project element. These projects are supported by renowned institutions such as the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe, the Muslim-Jewish Conference, the Catholic Archdiocese of Cologne and smaller local institutions such as the city and municipal administration, the local kindergarten or the environmental group "Unkel Tomorrow". What we need, however, is the capital to actually continue our entire People's Park Program beyond 2019. Operating costs such as electricity, water, lawn and tree care as well as insurance are between 5,000 and 20,000 euros per year, and while Unkel's administration was previously responsible for the costs, from 2020 the city will be forced to reduce its contribution significantly through austerity policies at the regional, state and federal levels. With your donation you give us the opportunity, after this loss of municipal financial support, to run our projects, building friendships between migrants and longstanding Germans and to win further partners who are able to finance our People's Park on a long-term and sustainable basis.
