How Wikimedia affiliates are spending $8.4 million; PRISM scandal: Late last year, the Funds Dissemination Committee (FDC) awarded $8.4 million in donors' money to 11 Wikimedia entities, including the Wikimedia Foundation and 10 nationally defined chapters. Under this arrangement, these organisations are required to issue quarterly reports on how far they have progressed towards their declared programmatic and financial goals. The FDC has now announced that all 11 completed and submitted their reports by the 1 April deadline, and have responded to each.
Requests last October (red) and actual grants (green) in millions of US dollars (percentages of the original request are in parentheses). The foundation's $4.5M request, granted in full, is excluded for easier scaling.
