Paying for Digital Infrastructure
It costs $20,000 a year to run our servers, and we need your help to pay for them!
Every time you visit our site, our servers are working behind the scenes to:
- Deliver content to millions of readers worldwide
- Host 2,934 definitions, 1,719 articles, 19,444 illustrations, 2,606 videos, and 415 3D images
- Support fast load times across devices and regions
- Serve content in more than 45 languages
- Power features like audio narration
This infrastructure is what allows us to remain free and accessible to anyone, anywhere.
Without it, this content would slow down, disappear, or move behind paywalls. With it, millions of people can continue learning—regardless of their resources or location.
