How is krakelee club financed?
krakelee club is a community project that only works if many contribute financially. The more people support krakelee — even with small amounts — the fewer expensive loans are needed. The crew has been working entirely on a voluntary basis since 2020.
What does krakelee need the money for?
Our project needs the support of the community so that we can finance krakelee club sustainably. The funds flow into the following main areas:
- Planning, concept & consultancy: building application, fire-safety reports, acoustic studies and reports, planning of electrics and drainage
- Architecture, interior & infrastructure: event-technical and gastronomy equipment, sanitary facilities, accessibility measures, van, renovation
- Co-op & financing: tax consultancy, accounting software, co-op matters (e.g., co-op audit)
- Long-term stability: So that we are not dependent on short-term income or loans, we need solid reserves and broad financing.
Areas we currently cover entirely on a voluntary basis:planning (architecture, electrics, fire safety, accessibility), awareness, financial & programme planning, event-tech planning, event planning and booking, external communication, design and IT infrastructure, accounting, membership management, sustainability management, crew care.
By supporting us — whether via buying co-op shares, crowdfunding or member loans — you become part of a movement that rethinks club culture: collaboratively, sustainably and inclusively.
