ہم کون ہیں؟
The Wikimedia Foundation Fundraising team cultivates the resources that propel our movement. We engage millions of people from countries across the globe to support Wikipedia and its sister projects. The overwhelming majority of the Foundation's funding comes from individual readers from all over the world giving an average of $11.
Donations help the Wikimedia Foundation maintain server infrastructure, improve the software that supports our projects, and make Wikipedia and its sister projects accessible globally to millions of people. For additional information, please see the 2024–2025 Fundraising Report.

Fundraising Content Strategy Overview
2025/26 Q3 Update
During Q3 the fundraising team focused on finalising the Big English fundraising campaign through a Thank you email campaign and the campaign community recap. At the same time, the team started preparing for the international email campaigns that launched in late Q3 in Italy, Belgium, Spain, Austria, and The Netherlands, as well as the Italian banner campaign during March (community collaboration page).
Planning for Q4 is underway when many more international campaigns are taking place across the globe (see full calendar above).
2025/26 Q2 Update
During Q2 the fundraising team focused mainly on the Big English fundraising campaign in Australia, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, the UK, and the US as well as the yearly fundraising campaign in France.
The fundraising team engaged the English Wikipedia community from July onwards on the community collaboration page and shared test ideas, product experimentations, and gave everyone space to contribute. Additionally, the fundraising programme was presented in a workshop at Wikimania.
In France the fundraising team hosted a community collaboration page and a community call giving the French community a chance to share their thoughts and feedback. Several suggestions from community members were implemented.
