Dear reader

We are delighted that you also read our newspaper online. As it is important to us that this is possible regardless of the financial situation of the respective user, we have deliberately decided not to charge for our Internet access. We all work on a voluntary basis – nevertheless, the production and dispatch of our newspapers, the maintenance of our online presence and, in some cases, the translations are associated with costs.
With every donation you help us to continue this endeavour.

Thank you very much!
