The Internet Archive has announced a major September fundraising drive where all new recurring donations will be matched 3X thanks to generous donors. For every dollar pledged monthly, donors will match it with two additional dollars, tripling the financial impact to help keep the non-profit’s vast server infrastructure running.

The organization continues its core mission of placing “the best our world has to offer within the reach of our children” by securing universal access to human knowledge, including billions of archived web pages, digitized books, and audio-visual media.

🌌 Deep Perspective

Digital information is paradoxically far more fragile than ancient parchment or stone inscriptions. Whether humanity 1,000 years from now can look back at the dawn of the internet without facing a ‘Digital Dark Age’ depends entirely on our collective commitment today to supporting non-profit, long-term archival institutions.
