The William and Flora Hewlett Foundation has decided to generously support us with $500,000 in operational funding. More information in the press release:
http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Press_releases/Hewlwett_Fdn_grant_August_2009 This is not a project-based grant like the Stanton and Ford initiatives, but designed to advance the mission of the Wikimedia Foundation as a whole. We're very grateful to Hewlett for their support! :-) It comes out of Hewlett's Open Educational Resources initiative, which is an acknowledgment that Wikimedia is an important part of the OER movement. Big thanks to Sara Crouse for her work on the proposal that led to this grant. -- Erik Möller Deputy Director, Wikimedia Foundation Support Free Knowledge: http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Donate _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list [email protected] Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
