MOBITEK Supports Wikimedia Foundation

From Jimmy Wales, Wikipedia Founder:

Thank you for helping keep Wikipedia online and ad-free. I’m sure you’re busy, so I’ll get right to it. We need your help again this year.

Please help us forget about fundraising and get back to improving Wikipedia.

We are the small non-profit that runs one of the top websites in the world. We only have about 200 staff but serve 450 million users, and have costs like any other top site: servers, power, programs, and people.

Wikipedia is something special. It is like a library or a public park. It is like a temple for the mind, a place we can all go to think and learn.

To protect our independence, we’ll never run ads. We survive on donations from our readers. Now is the time we ask.

If Wikipedia is useful to you, please take one minute to keep it online and ad-free another year.

Thanks,
Jimmy Wales
