Be part of the transformation and make change possible. unity Purpose, Tasks and Goals § 2 Purpose of the association, tasks and goals b) This is realized by the moneyfree transfer of consumer goods. That way they are not thrown away but can be used continously. Beyond that, broken goods can be put to use again (Upcycling). To achieve this goal, the association decided to provide and manage an online platform that enables and supports the above-mentioned activities. To make sure that all help (material and immaterial) is carried out selflessly only, the most important rule prohibites all kinds of return services and money considerations. Those can not be requested nor offered. The donors can freely decide which help seeking person they want to support. The members of the association take care of the abidence by these fundamentals in all conscience. Furthermore, the association wants to animate as many people as possible to participate in not throwing away unused goods but to make them accessible for others.
