Dear Wikimedia contributor, |
Dear Wikimedia contributor, |
||
Most Wikimedia readers don't even know that our projects are created by volunteers and funded entirely by voluntary donations. The fundraiser is a chance to teach the world how special Wikimedia projects really are. |
|||
Therefore, it's not a surprise that the most effective fundraising technique is for Wikimedia contributors to tell the stories of why they spend so much time working on their projects and why they believe in the future and promise of their projects. Only about one out of 1,000 Wikimedia users donate. The more effectively we tell our stories, the more people donate. |
