After several interviews, we have found our director for the Fliegerwerkstatt.

The renovation continues, the surrender is postponed until November. At the same time we go on the search for social worker/social educator for our youth facility.

The report of the investigating authority is present. Remediation measures are necessary. The landlord is required: tendering, ordering and performing are ongoing. This means for us: The transfer of the rental space is postponed until September. Until then, the restoration should be completed.

Too early happy: Before we can move into the halls, our rooms have to be examined for hazardous materials.

The lease is signed. The architect can plan. The conversion begins.

We scrutinize our financing concept for the last time, visit the “Forum non-profit status” about fundraising – and meet at the event many other social entrepreneurs. What an energy boost! Now we discover our fundraising tool of our Bank for Social Economy.

We enter into lease negotiations with the Tempelhof Projekt GmbH. What we do not know now. It will take more than a year, until we sign.

One of our co-tenants in Tempelhof would be the Berlin police; her voice and control center is located above our future workshop. We can convince them. Our friends and helpers are hooked on the idea of Social Return.

To carry out the first talks with future sponsors, we develop PowerPoint presentations and first elements for a website.

We have been now recognized as non-profit organization by the tax office. This means we may accept donations and issue receipts for donations!
