We're delighted to announce the possibility of helping our cooperative through
the GitHub Sponsors platform. The link is available here:

[https://github.com/sponsors/robur-coop](https://github.com/sponsors/robur-coop)

We would also like to reiterate the possibility of making a donation[^preferable] to our
cooperative via the IBAN of [Änderwerk][anderwerk] available here (if you need
a tax-deductible donation receipt, please use [this form][donate]).

    Account holder: Änderwerk gGmbH
    Subject: robur
    IBAN: DE46 4306 0967 1289 8604 00
    BIC: GENODEM1GLS
    Bank: GLS Gemeinschaftsbank, Christstrasse 9, 44789 Bochum, Germany

More generally, you can refer to our [article][financial] which explains our
funding since the creation of Robur and we would like to point out that,
despite our funding, part of our work remains unfunded: in particular with
regard to the maintenance of certain software as well as certain services made
available to our users.

We would therefore be delighted if users of our software and services could
finance our work according to their means. GitHub in particular offers an
easy-to-use platform for funding us (even if, in all transparency, it takes a
certain amount from each transaction).

[anderwerk]: https://aenderwerk.de/
[donate]: https://aenderwerk.de/donate

[^preferable]: In fact, this method is preferable to us as this means it will go directly to us instead of through GitHub and Stripe who will take a small cut of the donation in fees.
