What we fund
Your project should support the achievement of Wikimedia's mission and strategic direction. And it should aim at improving one or more of Wikimedia projects.
- Individuals coordinating local events related to a global campaign in their community.
- Informal and formal community meetup
- Wikimedia editathons and workshops
- Strategic and annual plans from Wikimedia affiliates
- Education projects, for example, reading or editing training on Wikipedia, Wikidata or other Wikimedia projects
- Cultural and heritage projects that support contribution of content, curation of the content and promote accessibility of that content.
- Gender and diversity projects, for example, bringing in and training women and gender diverse participants and editors. Also, creating content about women, gender diverse groups, underrepresented communities and their knowledge.
- Small-scale software development projects
- Working space, services, prizes, outreach, and other common costs needed to support edit-a-thons, contests, photowalks, and promotional campaigns.
- Data costs to support access to online events
- Project-related travel for organizers
- Compensation for well-defined roles that do not replace volunteer activities, including (but not limited to) graphic design, training, childcare services, translation, project management, and Wikimedian-in-Residence roles.
- No funding for travel scholarships or conference participation. Rapid Funds are project-based resources and only fund travel related to the direct implementation of the project.
- Equipment purchase is allowed for groups, organizations and affiliates. Equipment-based grants need to clearly demonstrate how the equipment will be shared with other community members. An equipment log or list must be publicly available for community members and included in the application. Examples of equipment funded with Rapid Funds are: laptops, cameras and projector, routers, external drives.
- Smaller-scale software development projects may be eligible for funding pending review from Community Resources and Technology department staff.
- Project code must be publicly available and published under a free software license compatible with relevant Wikimedia projects.
- A documentation plan should be incorporated as a part of the proposed activities.
- Proposals that depend on multiple or continuous Rapid Funds for long-term maintenance or development goals are generally ineligible.
- Applications to complete proposed research related to the Wikimedia movement are not eligible. Please review the Special:MyLanguage/Grants:Programs/Wikimedia Research & Technology Fund/Wikimedia Research Fund for these funding opportunties.
- Applications for open access publication fees to publish completed research are not eligible at this time. We encourage researchers to review the WikiJournal User Group, which publishes a set of open-access, peer-reviewed academic journals with no publishing costs to authors.
- Wikipedia exhibition 2023 at the Library fair (জাপান, East, Southeast Asia, & Pacific)
- Wiki Loves Bangla 2023 (বাংলাদেশ, দক্ষিণ এশিয়া)

- The project includes lobbying activities, as per United States Internal Revenue Service definitions. [1]

- You are an individual applying on behalf of different groups or organisations.
- You do not provide all information and documents needed to receive the funding from Wikimedia Foundation.

- Within the last year, applicants have not been repeatedly blocked or flagged for the same issue and/or have not been banned on the Wikimedia Projects.

- If the proposal indicates direct contact with children or youth, it also outlines compliance with international and local laws for working with children and youth, and provides documentation of the local laws in the annex.
