WHAT IS MOZILLA FOUNDATION-
(Ref - wiki)

The Mozilla Foundation is a "Not for Profit   organization" funded by donations and "search royalties".

Mozilla got first funding in 2003  from AOL, (donation US$2 million,) and from Mitch Kapor who donated US$300,000. The group has tax-exempt  status under section 501(c)(3) of the U.S. tax code, though the Mozilla Corporation subsidiary is taxable.

In 2006, the Mozilla Foundation received US$66.8 million in revenues, of which US$61.5 million is attributed to "search royalties" from Google.

From 2004 to 2014, the foundation had a deal with Google to make Google Search the default in the Firefox browser search bar and hence send it search referrals; a Firefox themed Google search site was also made the default home page of Firefox. The original contract expired in November 2006. However, Google renewed the contract until November 2008 and again through 2011.On December 20, 2011, Mozilla announced that the contract was once again renewed for at least three years to November 2014, at three times the amount previously paid, or nearly US$300 million annually.
Approximately 90% of Mozilla’s royalties revenue for 2014 was derived from this contract.
