Financials

edit

The Wikimedia Foundation continues to enjoy a stable base of revenue, stemming largely from its annual community giving campaign. In 2009–10, we dramatically increased the number of small donors, which now exceeds 250,000 individuals all over the world. This makes the Foundation one of the fastest-growing non-profits in the world, based on revenue growth. The Foundation's strategic plan envisions continued growth over the next five years.
