Hejmo is a Berlin-based nonprofit building inclusive community spaces where refugees, migrants, and long-time residents come together through culture, participation, and shared experiences. There are several ways you can support us and help strengthen belonging, creativity, and social cohesion in Berlin.
Regular donations allow us to plan long-term and respond to our community’s needs with flexibility. By donating monthly or yearly, you create the most sustainable impact.
Your support helps us buy ingredients for the Open Kitchen community cooking sessions, provide instruments for the Open Music School and the Open Music Lab, fund art supplies for the Open Hearts Space and cover rent and running costs for our Berlin project spaces.
As a thank you, monthly supporting members receive access to our living cookbook, updated regularly with recipes and stories from our community.
One-time donations are essential to keeping our doors open and our activities free for everyone.
Thanks to supporters like you, we can offer more than 80 free activities every month that reach 15,000 participants annually. Every contribution, no matter the size, directly supports inclusive community-building initiatives in Berlin.
Organize a dinner, marathon, workplace initiative, or community event and collect donations to support Hejmo’s nonprofit work in Berlin. You can also contribute to an existing fundraising campaign.
With the help of our partners and community, Hejmo has significantly impacted the lives of migrants, refugees, and local communities in Berlin.
