On Starting A Non-Profit To Fight Climate Change
I’m Georg Broxtermann, a serial entrepreneur, business angel, and co-founder of Berlin-based nonprofit GamesForest.Club, which connects the gaming and creative industries with forest projects to create a brighter future.
Maria Wagner and I co-founded the nonprofit organization more than a year ago to support the efforts of gaming and creative companies to become climate neutral as quickly as possible.
The gaming community consists of over 3 billion people, so we believe that we can significantly stop deforestation, one of the biggest problems accelerating climate change, by protecting forests and growing new ones.
Together with over 50 companies, among them leading publishers, developers, e-sport teams, and agencies of all kinds, we supported 16 forest projects worldwide in 2022, including eg WWF and others. All donations are transparently shown on our website via a digital twin, which mirrors the real forrest investments.
Seventy percent of corporate membership fees go directly to restoration; 30% are used for administrative costs. Individual patrons may also donate, and all donations under €180 are invested wholly into the GamesForest.Club community’s forest.
We offer a handful of partnership and membership...
