About Wikimedia Foundation
The Wikimedia Foundation is the nonprofit organization that operates Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia free knowledge projects. It was established in 2003 by Jimmy Wales as a way to fund Wikipedia and its sibling projects through non-profit means. Its vision is a world in which every single human can freely share in the sum of all knowledge. The company believes that everyone has the potential to contribute something to our shared knowledge and that everyone should be able to access that knowledge freely.
