We at the Organization for Transformative Works are excited to introduce an additional way to support us: we're now one of the charities you can select when purchasing a Humble Bundle or through the Humble Store!

Humble Bundle lets you pay what you want for a selection of games, books, comics, and software, while the Humble Store acts as a hub for users to purchase games for multiple platforms. In both cases, you can select an amount to go to the OTW in support of its projects. Content availability may vary depending on your country, but there's an incredible selection to chose from! When you use the Humble Store to purchase games, or buy a Humble Bundle, select the Organization for Transformative Works as your charity of choice at checkout, and we will receive a portion of the proceeds. As always, your privacy is guaranteed!

(Donations the OTW receives as a result of Humble Bundle or Humble Store purchases will not make you a member of the OTW. If you wish to become a member, please donate via this form.)

Thank you so much for your support!

The Organization for Transformative Works is the non-profit parent organization of multiple projects including Archive of Our Own, Fanlore, Open Doors, Transformative Works and Cultures, and OTW Legal Advocacy. We are a fan run, entirely donor-supported organization staffed by volunteers. Find out more about us on our website.

Thank you for posting this. My family buys a lot of video/computer games and this will be a great way to donate to various charities--including AO3!

This is great news! I buy games from the Humble Store (and get free ones too) on occasion, so it's nice to know I can help support two of my hobbies at once :)

Hey. Sorry about this, but I don't play video games. I chose a book bundle instead. The charity options di NOT include OTW. There simply was no way to donate to you guys if you buy books. I thought maybe if you knew, you could ask them to add you to the choices for that.
I love AO3 and am sad that you didn't get a donation for my Humble Bundle purchase.

  The charities available by default are only the 'featured' charities, which change each month. To support another charity, you have to choose it by first going to it's page -- the link shared in the post, https://www.humblebundle.com/store/select-charity/charity/1456209 -- and click 'Select.' Then it will be available when you try to buy something.
  Hope this helps in the future! :)

This is great! I shop at Humble Bundle a lot. I will definitely search there for OTW and support AO3!
