Vision
The Wiki Spot project is a multicommunity, non-profit effort to help communities collaborate via wikis. With this in mind, we intend to keep Wiki Spot completely free and, equally importantly, free from banner ads and other advertising. Forever. But we need your help!
Costs
Regardless of intentions, running Wiki Spot is not a free enterprise. We ask — if you think what we provide is valuable and want to help keep things running for as long as possible — that you make a contribution.
Wiki Spot is an educational and charitable 501(c)3 organization. This means your contributions are tax deductible.
Donate online with PayPal using your Credit/Debit card or your PayPal account:
Please indicate if you'd like a receipt for tax purposes! If you'd like to deduct the contribution from your taxes you'll want a receipt.
If a particular wiki or set of wikis is the inspiration for your donation then feel free to say so! If you don't want to be thanked publically or have any other special instructions please include them.
To donate via check: Make your check payable to "Wiki Spot" and mail to this address:

Every person is ultimately donating his or her time to make Wiki Spot better. There are also ways you can help with the backend of the site (graphic design, HTML, programming, etc). See Help out and Wiki Spot Development if you're interested in helping out with those things.
