# Donate to the Internet Archive

### A Message from Internet Archive Founder, Brewster Kahle

Brewster Kahle

Founder & Digital Librarian

Dear Patron,

The Web is a wonderful place, created by hundreds of millions of people. But it’s also fragile. Parts of it disappear every day. That’s why I founded the Internet Archive—to give us a memory. To give everyone free and universal access to our digital world.

What if the Internet Archive didn’t exist?

We’d live in the land of the perpetual present, an Orwellian world where people could effectively change the past—because there would be no record of it. No ability to look back.

Instead, together we are building the digital library of the future. A place where we can all go to learn and explore.

At the Internet Archive, we’ve preserved 430 billion web pages. People download 20 million books on our site each month. We get more visitors in a year than most libraries do in a lifetime. The key is to keep improving—and to keep it free. That’s where you can help us.

The Internet Archive is a non-profit library built on trust. We don’t run ads. We don’t sell your personal information—in fact, to protect your privacy we don’t even save your IP address. But we still need to pay for servers, staff and bandwidth.

If you find the Internet Archive useful, please consider donating $25, $75, or $100 to support us. It’s is a small amount to inform millions. Help us do more. I promise you--It’s money well spent.

Thank you.
