Overview

Help Build a Truly Multilingual Internet for Everyone aims to remove language barriers on the web so people can participate, learn, and create. This is a people powered mission to ensure digital spaces reflect the world's linguistic diversity.

We pursue open source translation tooling, multilingual content standards, and community governance to deliver inclusive experiences. The work spans software, documentation, and community training, inviting contributors from many regions to collaborate with integrity and respect for local contexts. Our approach prioritizes privacy, accessibility, and practical usability so that language support is not an afterthought but a fundamental feature of the web we build together.

This donation page explains how contributions support sustainable progress, measurable outcomes, and daily impact for communities around the world. It is a living reflection of shared purpose and ongoing learning, grounded in real needs and concrete outcomes.

Why Your Support Matters

For Help Build a Truly Multilingual Internet for Everyone, your support speeds up meaningful progress across languages, regions, and disciplines. Your generosity helps empower educators, students, researchers, and creators who rely on content in their own language to participate fully in digital life.

  • Expand localization across major languages to reach new communities and learners
  • Improve accessibility and inclusive design so information is readable by everyone
  • Build open translation tooling and robust documentation for collaborators
  • Strengthen multilingual search, indexing, and content discovery

When language access is broadened, learning materials, civic information, and creative resources become more navigable. Communities gain agency to shape the digital landscape, and contributors gain opportunities to practice, refine, and share their skills. This is not just about translating words but about shaping meaning across cultures.
