Donor Advised Funds
Donor Advised Funds (DAFs) allow you to combine the most favorable tax benefits with the flexibility to support your preferred causes. If you’d like to recommend a grant to the Wikimedia Foundation directly from your DAF, please see the links below:
- Fidelity Charitable
- Schwab Charitable
- Vanguard
- American Endowment
- Jewish Community Federation & Endowment Fund
- Silicon Valley Community Foundation
- New York Community Trust
Please contact us at benefactorswikimedia.org if you have questions or if your DAF of choice is not listed.
Amazon Payments
You can make a donation in U.S. Dollars through Amazon Payments, please select an amount and choose "Donate via Amazon". If you are donating via Amazon in a currency other than U.S. Dollars, please be aware that your funding source may be rejected or that you may experience extra charges associated with converting a charge into another currency. We encourage you to contact your bank for more information.
Bitcoin
Please note that the Wikimedia Foundation can only refund Bitcoin donations in Bitcoin. Because we do not store Bitcoins, refunds will be calculated based on the U.S. Dollar amount we received via instant exchange at the time of the donation, using our payment processor's Bitcoin sell rate when the refund is issued. The Wikimedia Foundation is not responsible for any change in value based on fluctuating exchange rates.
For questions, please contact donatewikimedia.org.
