Why give?
evolt.org is an all-volunteer organization that relies on the contributions of its members to operate and function. Thanks in part to the generous commitment of the web community, evolt.org provides renowned resources and information without advertisements. Here is a list of some of the services we provide:
- The Browser Archive
The largest browser archive available anywhere! - Articles
Articles, tutorials and news items written by our members and available free to any visitor. - List Servs
Numerous email lists to help disseminate knowledge to the web development community, and to help run evolt.org. - The Directory Project
A searchable directory containing links covering web design and development.
The opportunities and services we provide are an increasing drain on evolt.org's limited finances. Bandwidth costs are our biggest expenditure; we currently transfer 250 GB/month, and that usage is growing. Hence, the need to ask for your help.
Financial donations
evolt.org is currently able to take donations online using PayPal. You can donate via PayPal in US dollars no matter what your home currency.
Support evolt.org every month using PayPal subscriptions, or a one-off payment.
You can cancel your subscription at any time using your PayPal account. If you don't have a PayPal account, it's fast and easy to sign up during the donation process.
We're sensitive to the fact that the exchange rate and cost of living is very different in different countries. All gifts, of all sizes, are most welcome and help evolt.org provide its services.
Payments are made to Geekhaus Ltd, who maintain the evolt.org legacy infrastructure, and the Browser Archive.
Evolt Merchandise
You can buy all manner of evolt-branded merchandise at the evolt.org CafePress Store, including shirts, hats, bags and other fine goods.

Google Ads in the Browser Archive
We have begun running Google AdSense ads within the Browser Archive.
If you see any ads appear which are inappropriate, or which appear to interfere with your access to the Browser Archive, please let us know as soon as possible.
Technical donations
At the moment we really need browser mirrors hosted on sites which can do the following:
- can host at least ~ 6 gigabytes of data
- can bitshift at least ~ 50-100 gigabytes per month of traffic
- can use rsync to cope with:
- automatic incremental one-way at-most-daily synchronisation of the Archive
- symbolic links within the Archive
If you can do that, let us know.
Knowledge donations
We welcome many types of contributions, and recognise that not all of them will be tangible. We value the evolt.org community members who donate their time, skills, opinions and expertise to our various list servers, articles, and administration and management demands. While evolt.org's financial needs are great, there is no evolt without those contributions.
Thanks!
If you have questions, please contact give@evolt.org. Regardless of what or how much you choose to contribute to evolt.org, it is sincerely appreciated.
