    The mission of the Wikimedia Foundation is to empower and engage people around the world to collect and develop educational content under a free license or in the public domain, and to disseminate it effectively and globally, through websites like Wikipedia. In collaboration with a network of chapters, the Foundation provides the essential infrastructure and an organizational framework for the support and development of multilingual wiki projects and other endeavors which serve this mission. The Foundation will make and keep useful information from its projects available on the Internet free of charge, in perpetuity.

    Other financial info

    Our financial model is based on support from a broad number of individuals, rather than any specific large donors. During the 2012-2013 fiscal year, donations totaling 95% of our revenue came in the form of small donations from over two million individuals. This gives us the independence to represent individuals, rather than the interests of specific large donors.
