Donations
Our hackerspace is a community-run, volunteer-powered place for makers, tinkerers, artists, and engineers. Donations help us keep the space open, maintain equipment, and grow our resources. Every contribution — big or small — helps build our community. Thank you for supporting us
What Donations Go To
Your contributions fund:
- Rent and utilities
- Tools, equipment, and repairs
- Consumables (solder, filament, cleaning supplies)
- Workshops and community events
- Open access for all members
Financial Donations
One-Time Donations
You can donate any amount, at any time, via:
- Cash at the space
- Bank transfer
- PayPal / Swish / Other
Monthly Support
Recurring donations help us keep the space going long-term. With enough recurring support, we can lower membership costs — allowing more people access to the space.
Individuals: Membership contributions or monthly patron tiers
Companies: Sponsorship packages or monthly patron tiers
Equipment & Material Donations
We also accept physical donations! Useful items include:
- Electronics components and tools in good working condition
- 3D printing filament and workshop materials
- Storage and organization supplies
Please contact a maintainer before bringing anything in. All equipment donations must be approved first — unapproved items left at the space will be disposed of without notice.
For full details on what we accept, what we won't, and what happens to donated items, see our Equipment Donation Policy.
What Happens to Donated Equipment
- The space gets first claim. Stewards assess whether the item has a place as shared or communal equipment.
- If the space has no use for it, the item is made available to members to claim for personal use, free of charge, on a first-come-first-served basis.
- If no member claims it, the item will be sold, recycled, or discarded at the stewards' discretion.
Once accepted, ownership transfers to the hackerspace immediately. We cannot hold items for retrieval — please don't donate anything you may want back.
Donation Receipts
If you need a receipt or documentation for your donation, contact a board member or treasurer and provide your name and donation details.
