Statement by the Board on the Financial Situation of Berliner CSD e. V.

“The Berlin CSD faced major financial challenges this year.
After our public announcement about the loss of key funding, we experienced overwhelming solidarity: numerous donations, newly acquired partners, and already implemented cost-saving measures have ensured that CSD Berlin 2025 is now on solid ground and the financial gap has been closed.

All planned Pride Month events, accessibility measures, and association projects can go ahead as planned.

At the same time, the coming years will remain challenging – not only financially, but also socially. The board will announce which partners are supporting us this year on Monday.”
