Christmas greetings from Holger and Thomas

Dear Metalheads, friends and partners,

we were profoundly shaken by the terrible fires raging in the Amazon rainforest. Just during the time of this years Wacken Open Air thousands and thousands acres of woods and fields were destroyed. We strongly oppose to that and therefore decided to take action. 

Together with the WWF and Instituto Terra from Brazil we would like to support the region of Mata Atlantica by restoring the area with native trees. We will happily donate the first 10.000 Euros, which means we can already plant 1600 trees and restore the first 16000 m² . 

By joining forces with you we would like to afforest an area the size of our infield (5 acres rounded off). Planting a tree is as cheap as a 6 Euro donation and definitely helps promoting the survival of the rain forest. 

You can donate money here: www.wwf.de/woa

You and us have already proven that we can achieve some great things together and once again we are hoping for your support. 

Merry christmas and a happy new year! 

Thomas, Holger & the W:O:A Team
