Hi!
Non-profit organizations are famous for having terrible web
sites.
Maybe other non-profit organizations don't conduct their business mainly via their website. Wikipedia wasn't that beautiful at some point in time either, a volunteer came and redesigned it.
The way Medecins Sans Frontieres can get highly qualified doctors to join, Wikipedia had lots of motivation for technology people - something they could do that was at very core of the activities.
