We are committed to revolutionizing the appraisal industry by modernizing appraisal processes through data science and evidence-based analysis, moving beyond outdated methods. Our mission is about more than data; it's about equipping professionals with the skills to navigate their careers confidently. Appraisers are among the often-forgotten groups—expected to follow complex, evolving standards while managing challenges from automated systems and shifting industry practices that can undermine their role. Our goal is to provide resources to help appraisers stay resilient, maintain public trust, and uphold professional standards. We stand with all often-forgotten groups, including Poor People, Veterans, Farmers, Rural Communities, Urban Communities, Heirs Property owners, and Appraisers. These groups are often overlooked within the systems that govern property valuation and land use. This fundraiser aims to support the modernization of the appraisal process, improve professional resources for appraisers, and advance data-driven valuation techniques. Your support will also fund educational programs and scholarships for aspiring appraisers, preparing them to meet the demands of modern appraisal work. Join us in this effort for accurate appraisals and professional growth. Your contribution will be a catalyst for change, empowering a new wave of appraisers who are armed with the knowledge, skills, and drive to shape the future of property valuation. Together, we can build a more accurate and efficient industry that reflects the evolving standards of our field. Thank you for standing with us in this vital cause.

The Kreisau-Initiative e.V. was founded 1989 to address the need for international understanding, democratic education, and active engagement in human rights, particularly in response to Europe's history of division, conflict, and authoritarianism. The Kreisau-Initiative is committed to promoting democracy, human rights, social inclusion, and sustainability through international educational programs and cross-cultural dialogue. Rooted in the legacy of the Kreisau Circle, a German resistance group against Nazism, its mission is to empower individuals - especially young people - to actively shape just, inclusive, and democratic societies. At its core, the Kreisau-Initiative responds to persistent social challenges such as discrimination, social exclusion, extremism, and a lack of opportunities for youth participation in shaping democratic, inclusive societies. Recognizing that many young people - especially those from marginalized backgrounds - face barriers to education, empowerment, and cross-cultural exchange, the organization promotes non-formal education as a tool for social change. Today, the need for fostering social cohesion, gender equality, human rights awareness, and sustainability remains as urgent as ever. The Kreisau-Initiative continues to address these challenges by creating spaces for learning, dialogue, and action, empowering individuals to become active, responsible members of a democratic and diverse Europe. The organization's priority objectives are: - To foster social cohesion by addressing discrimination, exclusion, and extremism. - To promote human rights education and critical engagement with history to strengthen democratic values. - To advance gender equality and support marginalized groups through empowerment and participation. - To encourage socio-ecological transformation, raising awareness of sustainable development and climate justice. - To provide spaces for intercultural exchange, enabling young people to develop skills in dialogue, cooperation, and civic responsibility. Through non-formal education, transnational partnerships, and youth-centered approaches, the Kreisau-Initiative equips participants with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to drive positive social change across Europe and beyond.
