Posteo donated to the following organisations during 2025:

• Doctors Without Borders

  Doctors Without Borders was founded in France in 1971. The German section was added in 1993. Today, MSF (Médicins Sans Frontières) is an international network that provides emergency medical aid in over 70 countries. As a humanitarian medical organisation, Doctors Without Borders is committed to providing high-quality and efficient health care in countries where people's survival is at risk due to diseases, wars and disasters.

• UNO-Flüchtlingshilfe

  UNO-Flüchtlingshilfe is the German offshoot of the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR). It ensures the survival of refugees in acute crisis situations with life-saving emergency measures. UNO-Flüchtlingshilfe thus provides for sufficient supplies of water, food and medicines in refugee camps or regions that are hard to access, for example.

• Reporter ohne Grenzen - Für Informationsfreiheit

  Reporters Without Borders engages itself worldwide for freedom of the press and freedom of information. The organisation documents violations against freedom of the press and supports journalists that are in danger. Reporters Without Borders combats censorship and restrictive media laws.

• UNICEF – Living Schools and winter help for children

  UNICEF is the United Nations' children's relief organisation. Since 1946, the organisation has been committed to the health, education and rights of children and mothers in 190 countries. UNICEF is politically engaged against the use of child soldiers and for the protection of refugees and the implementation of the Convention on the Rights of the Children. Posteo supports the Living Schools project in Malawi: Schools are being built based on principles of environmental consciousness, e-learning and co-management. The schools have their own water system for clean drinking water and hygiene, use the sun for producing energy and teach about environmental preservation in a school garden. Additionally, Posteo supports winter help for children in crisis regions. During humanitarian crises, children are often left without protection from weather conditions. UNICEF provides help worldwide in such emergency situations.

• Amadeu Antonio Foundation

  The goal of the Amadeu Antonio Foundation, established in 1998, is to reinforce a democratic civil society that promotes pluralism and human rights while opposing right-wing extremism, racism and antisemitism. To this end, the foundation supports initiatives and projects that consistently stand up for a democratic culture and for the protection of minorities. Since 2003, the Amadeu Antonio Foundation hosts an annual awareness week against antisemitism and consults professionals in children and youth work. In addition, the foundation educates on conspiracy narratives and their connection with antisemitic models for explaining the world. Donations from Posteo are used for projects that are committed against antisemitism and conspiracy ideologies.

• Netzpolitik.org

  netzpolitik.org is a journalistic platform for digital freedom rights and presents the important debates and developments on the topic of the internet. The platform documents how politics is changing the internet and society through regulation and the continued expansion of surveillance laws. With its work, netzpolitik.org wants to encourage people to become engaged for their digital freedom rights and an open society.
