Wikipedia The Free Encyclopedia
An important update for readers in the United States.
Please don't skip this 1-minute read. Today we're running a short fundraiser to support Wikipedia. If you've lost count of how many times you've visited Wikipedia this year, we hope that means it's given you at least $2.75 of knowledge. If so, please join the 2% of readers who give to keep this resource available for all.
After nearly 25 years, Wikipedia is still the internet we were promised—created by people, not by machines. It's not perfect, but it's not here to push a point of view. It's owned by a non-profit, not a giant technology company or a billionaire.
Most readers donate because Wikipedia is useful to them, others because Wikipedia is more important than ever. If you feel the same, please donate $2.75 today—or consider a monthly gift to help all year. Thank you.

The internet we were promised
After nearly 25 years, Wikipedia is still the internet we were promised— an oasis of free and collaborative knowledge. Today, we ask you to join the 2% of readers who support this space. If everyone reading this right now gave just $2.75, we'd reach our goal quickly.
