Lukas Kunert – elinor & Falk Zientz - GLS Bank
One of the two initiators of #Unterkunft Ukraine, Lukas, has been running the solidarity platform elinor since 2018. This platform offers group accounts for environmental organizations, school classes, sports clubs and other initiatives of all kinds. Together with GLS Bank, the elinor team was able, for example, to support Fridays for Future by setting up a solidarity fund.
Falk Zientz is our second initiator and is part of the board of sustainable GLS Bank.
Felix Oldenburg — gut.org
As board spokesman Felix is working on social networking at gut.org gAG since 2020. gut.org is a non-profit group of digital social enterprises that includes Germany’s largest donation platform betterplace.org and now also #UnterkunftUkraine. Felix recognized the potential of Lukas’ and Falk’s idea immediately and brought the coordination of #UnterkunftUkraine to the gut.org network on day three after the war began.
