The three refugee shelters in Maisach have had internet connections since 2019, set up by the Refugees Online association.

Maisach - The cost of using it at that time was around 230 euros per year and accommodation.

The asylum helpers were able to finance this amount by selling vouchers for internet use on site.

With the beginning of the pandemic, it became clear that the amount of data was insufficient for online German courses, homeschooling and other applications.

Therefore, the district office took care of the expansion of the network.

The costs for the connections remain with the asylum helpers.

Due to the higher performance, they now amount to around 1800 euros per year and accommodation.

This amount cannot be raised through donations or voucher sales.

Therefore the main and finance committee of the municipal council decided to support the asylum helpers in Maisach and Gernlinden with a total of 2000 euros per year for the WLAN.
