Note that I suggested we indeed do this and Angela gave that answer.
However, Jimbo noted that part of the money available to the Foundation
did not come to donators money, but had no string attached, so could
very well be used for the goal.
Still, I think we did not persued the discussion, probably aspired in
everyday issues.

Then why doesn't Wikimedia just donate to
Freenode? :-p
Because our donors have been given the impression the money was going
towards Wikimedia's own servers and not to third parties. If this is
going to be done in future, the "how we spend the money" page needs to
be updated to reflect that.
Freenode's fundraising drive has now finished successfully by the way.
