    In Spring 2012 a collector donated us 35'000 78 rpm records that we have to clean, repackage in new sleeves, digitize and conserve for future generations. Now we own over 50'000 records, but only have a storage capacity of 15'000. It is very difficult to find sponsors in Switzerland for a non-profit cultural project, we do not have the money to rent another storage room itself. At the moment it's very important for our project to find an approx. 35 m2 storage room and maybe a sponsor that help us to finance new record sleeves and EURO-/RAKO-Polypropylen containers.
