Kiwix

kiwix
Lausanne, Switzerland

Kiwix brings internet content to people without internet access. Poor infrastructures, high data costs, or even censorship: we help millions get free and local access to Wikipedia, TED talks, the Gutenberg library and hundred more educational websites in dozens of languages. Kiwix runs in schools, prisons, refugee camps and is being used for free by dozens of NGOs around the world. Server maintenance alone is around $1,400/month.

All of our code is FOSS and hosted on the /kiwix and /openzim repositories.

@kiwix

We don't expect sponsors to cover everything, but if anything people here should be best placed to know the amount of work needed to maintain this project.

Nice! This covers all of our monthly bank fees, or the encryption/app store certificates. You are, in fact, awesome.

You probably run a small NGO (or know someone who does), make do with whatever you can, but you know that Kiwix helps your mission big time. You want to help in return, and we truly appreciate that.

There's something special about Kiwix and you. Maybe you are using it for a larger project (a school, a camp, a research station) with many users, and you know that nothing comes for free in this world. This covers our insurance costs and goodies for volunteer coders.
Feel free to reach out if you need help with your project, obviously (and of course, we'll share some of the goodies with you!).

You are a real supporter: you know the mission, and you want to help us organize our next hackathon, buy equipment and generally move ahead with things.
If you need a specific zim file created let us know and we'll work something out.
