Arrrgh. Wikipedia is not short of money. It is short of supporters, mostly because kindness and listening are not its organisational virtues, and so it tends to hack off the people who would otherwise support it the most effectively.
Eg: You are a world expert. You clarify some text in the entry of your expertise. I'd say it takes less than ten times of doing this before you swear off helping Wikipedia forever.
