Dear friends & comrades,
we would like to inform you about the progress we have made with the solidarity boxes that we started giving around at our concerts. We believe that it is fair for you to know what exactly we (and you with your donation) support and also to make more people know about and support the purpose. Also to give you the contact of the places we support, so you can support them with your own with donations or go there as volunteers.
Generally and unfortunately, there are a lot of things happening out there, that need our support but we are trying to focus in some and keep our eyes open at the same time.
Here the donations from the last months went:

From September until today it has consistently been active at Victoria Square and surrounding areas, while in October it created solidarity structures on Skala Sikamia, Lesbos, where a lot of volunteers went to support.
