In order to be able to support the valuable work of our research and media ship ALDEBARAN with donations, especially in the early days, we founded a non-profit association in 1992 to collect donations for our initiatives.

Since then, the sponsors' association has been the main way to support the work, ships and projects of the foundation with small donations. Our volunteers are also organized in the association and insured against accidents in the context of our projects, especially our sport and research divers.
