>Please don't skip this 1-minute read. It's Wednesday, December 3, and this moment matters for Wikipedia because we haven't hit our goal yet. If you're like me, you've used Wikipedia countless times. To settle an argument with a friend. To satisfy a curiosity. To better understand the world around us. Whether it's 3 in the morning or the afternoon, Wikipedia is useful in your life. Please give $2.75.
>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.
>If you are undecided, remember that most readers don't donate, so any contribution helps—and monthly gifts are the best option for a lasting impact. So if Wikipedia still provides you with $2.75 of knowledge, kindly donate today. Thank you.
