If you enjoy the content on this website, consider showing your appreciation by making a financial contribution. Think of it as treating me to a virtual beverage. There are some options where you can give monthly, and while that’s helpful, it’s not required. Rest assured that your support will remain confidential—only the payment processing company and my accounting records will be aware of your contribution.

Donate Directly To Charity
You can also support a charity directly. Here are some of my favourite charities (or those that put their donations to good use).
Canada Based
Second Harvest — “Founded in 1985, Second Harvest rescues fresh food and delivers it to hungry people in Canada.”
OpenMedia — “OpenMedia works to keep the Internet open, affordable, and surveillance-free.”
Terry Fox — “Terry Fox Foundation (TFF) raises funds and awareness for cancer research.”
USA Based
EFF — “The leading nonprofit defending digital privacy, free speech, and innovation.”
ProPublica — “ProPublica is an independent, non-profit newsroom that produces investigative journalism in the public interest.”
The Markup — “Challenging technology to serve the public good.”
Internet Archive — You know archive.org? Ya, they run that. “If you can’t imagine a future without the Internet Archive, please consider supporting our work. We promise to put your donation to good use as we continue to store over 99 petabytes of data, including 625 billion webpages, 38 million books and texts, and 14 million audio recordings.”
International
If those aren’t in your local currency, or are too expensive due to the exchange rate / purchasing power parity, or high power cost, please consider giving to your local food bank, or another charity of your choosing.
Cryptocurrency — donate it to charity
I don’t hold any cryptocurrency, instead please consider giving it to one of these charities. Internet Archive (USA based), or The Unison Fund (Canada based).
