Miteinander in Konstanz E.V

What Miteinander in Konstanz E.V does

Miteinander in Konstanz e.V. is a small German non-profit association (eingetragener Verein) founded in 2010 by residents of the Berchen-Öhmdwiesen district of Konstanz, Baden-Württemberg. It operates the Quartierszentrum Berchen-Öhmdwiesen neighborhood center on behalf of the City of Konstanz — a role it has held since early 2012 — and delivers a portfolio of community programs including German language courses (A1-A2, free, Mondays), a sewing project (Butterfly), a Repair Café (running four times/year since October 2014), two intercultural community gardens with 35 total plots, a weekly international three-course lunch (running 10+ years), an intercultural breakfast encounter, advisory services (job applications, benefits forms, housing search, authority liaison), intergenerational neighborhood help at €16/hour, and social supervision for refugees in 18 housing units at AU Zergle (Mühlenweg 15-17).

Its technology footprint is minimal: a Jimdo CMS website, Google Analytics, reCAPTCHA, social media on Facebook and Instagram, multilingual videos on YouTube, and a quarterly print magazine (Quartiersheft) plus email newsletter. The business model is a hybrid of recurring municipal subsidy (the dominant revenue stream, via the Sozial- und Jugendamt of the City of Konstanz since 2016), membership fees and tax-deductible donations (under §10b EStG), and nominal programmatic fees (e.g., €4-6 lunch, €18/year garden plot, €16/hour neighborhood help). The go-to-market is community-led: referrals from the city, social services, churches, Caritas, and 15+ local partners, with services delivered in-person at the Quartierszentrum and AU Zergle during documented opening hours (Mon-Fri 9:00-12:00, Mon-Tue 15:00-17:00). The organization employs approximately 5-10 paid staff (4 named social pedagogical/administrative professionals plus 1 at AU Zergle) under a 5-person volunteer board (Vorstand).
