Overview
Sustain Critical Internet Infrastructure is a community-driven effort to protect and strengthen the networks that keep our digital world accessible. This campaign funds the ongoing care, maintenance, and thoughtful development of open, interoperable systems that power essential services across borders and disciplines. By supporting this initiative, contributors help ensure reliability, security, and transparency for researchers, educators, operators, and everyday users who depend on stable connectivity—today and for years to come.
The work goes beyond hardware and software. It includes governance practices that invite broad participation, documentation that travels across languages and regions, and open experimentation that invites scrutiny and collaboration. In a time when digital resilience is as important as speed, every donation strengthens the foundation of a more accessible internet.
Why Your Support Matters
The internet is a shared resource that powers learning, commerce, healthcare, and civic life. Your support helps Sustain Critical Internet Infrastructure invest in durable, trustworthy systems that remain resilient under pressure. This project values inclusivity, long-term stewardship, and measurable outcomes, so supporters can see how their contributions contribute to real-world stability and progress.
By joining this effort, you become part of a global network of volunteers, researchers, and operators who prioritize interoperability and openness. The impact extends beyond technology: it strengthens communities by enabling transparent governance, accessible documentation, and opportunities for skill-building and collaboration across regions with diverse needs.
How Donations Are Used
Donations are allocated to sustaining operations, improving security, and expanding access to critical infrastructure resources. The work focuses on responsible stewardship and long-term viability, with an emphasis on openness and accountability.
- Infrastructure maintenance and upgrades to ensure stable performance, redundancy, and compatibility across platforms.
- Security audits and incident readiness to identify risks, implement safeguards, and respond effectively when challenges arise.
- Hosting, bandwidth, and disaster recovery to keep services accessible even during spikes or outages.
- Open documentation and education to empower operators and researchers with clear guidance and best practices.
- Community governance and reporting to maintain transparency, invite feedback, and demonstrate impact through measurable metrics.
The approach is intentionally modest and sustainable. Funds are used to stabilize core capabilities while expanding inclusive training, multilingual resources, and user-friendly tools that help the broader ecosystem participate in meaningful ways.
