Donate
Crowdfunding
We rely on regular donations to build and maintain our free wireless network. We use betterplace.org for it. This is easier for both us and you. Donation receipts are issued by betterplace.org and sent in February of the following year.
Donating Hardware
Direct donations of hardware also help us operate the network. But please don’t just show up with a pile of hardware. Contact us beforehand and let us know what devices you have. Here are a few tips on what hardware is useful to us:
