We are the nonprofit organization that operates Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia free knowledge projects. We host a technology infrastructure that makes possible billions of monthly visits to Wikipedia. Since 2003, we have supported the hundreds of thousands of volunteer editors who edit, expand, and curate the Wikimedia projects. We equip these volunteers with the most up-to-date tools, ensure connections to Wikipedia are fast, safe, and private, and develop new technology and products to meet the demands of our readers and editors. We provide individuals and organizations around the world with funding to increase the knowledge on Wikipedia. We also undertake legal and advocacy efforts to protect people’s right to free knowledge. We are a charitable, not-for-profit organization that relies on donations. We receive donations from millions of individuals around the world, with an average donation of about $11. We also receive donations through institutional grants and gifts. We are a United States 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization with offices in San Francisco, California.
