Free the internet
This year we are calling to FREE THE INTERNET! By supporting Tor, your donation will help break the chains of censorship and surveillance. If you give now during the campaign, your donation will be matched by our supporters at Power Up Privacy. This means a $25 donation will have a $50 impact — and all donations over $25 will qualify you for fun Tor merchandise. 👀
At the Tor Project, along with our incredible community of supporters, we're not just envisioning a free internet — we're building it:
In countries like Turkmenistan where access to information is tightly controlled, Turkmen.news trusts Tor to provide safe access to the free internet where it once did not exist.
Freedom of the Press Foundation uses Tor as the backbone of SecureDrop, a tool that allows journalists and sources to communicate freely without fear of retaliation or exposure.
In Russia and Egypt, where authorities often block encrypted tools to control communications, individuals use Tor Browser to access encrypted email services like Tuta Mail to freely communicate.
Tor is a building block for a free internet, and it takes our collective efforts to improve and amplify it. That’s why during the next three months, the Tor Project will be holding a fundraising campaign during which we ask for your support to advance digital freedom.
To learn more about how Tor is freeing the internet from surveillance and censorship, and how we are putting charitable donations to work, please tune into our annual State of the Onion virtual event to learn more. Save these dates and make your donation today!
