Dear John,

Thank you for supporting Wikipedia and the Wikimedia Foundation with your gift of $ 20.00. Your contribution keeps Wikipedia independent. I’d like to tell you why your gift is so important.

Wikipedia is a global project. At the Wikimedia Foundation, engineers and staff strive to make your Wikipedia experience useful and engaging. We work to make Wikipedia accessible on any internet connection, across any device, no matter where you are. We stand up for the future of the open internet and fight to protect your privacy. We are passionate about making free knowledge available to everyone on the planet. We’re a small team with a big mission, so your contribution matters.

Every day, you make critical decisions based on what you read on the internet. Wikipedia is a vital resource because it offers free, neutral, and unbiased information written by people from all around the world.

Wikipedia would not be possible without a shared commitment from our readers, our editors, and donors like you. Your support of Wikipedia allows us to stay neutral, unbiased, and entirely independent. You know you can rely on us, because Wikipedia can’t be bought. We are here for you, and you are here for us.

By donating you are safeguarding the sum of human knowledge now, and for generations to come.

Thank you for supporting Wikipedia. We hope you will continue to stand on the side of knowledge.
