We want to provide scientifically sound information about the climate crisis and show what options are available to counteract the climate crisis. So far, we have done everything on a voluntary basis. Now we would like to create a position to support our activities. This will enable us to incorporate the latest scientific findings into current political discourse even more effectively and draw attention to the urgency of the situation.
In order to finance the position, we are dependent on your donations.
With your donation to the non-profit organization Scientists for Future e.V. you strengthen the science communication of the regional group Mainz/Wiesbaden in the fight against the climate crisis.
Please indicate “Spende für RG Mainz/Wiesbaden” in the purpose of the bank transfer so that your donation reaches us. Otherwise, the Friends of Scientists for Future Deutschland e.V. will not be able to clearly allocate the donation.

Transparency notice for the donation tool
We collect donations via the twingle donation tool. A small amount of each donation is passed on to twingle as a processing fee, but this is offset by major administrative savings for us, e.g. through the automation of donation notifications. In addition, twingle offers greater data protection than the publication of our IBAN number. The lowest fees are incurred if you choose the “bank transfer” option within Twingle.
