[Donate]( Will you donate to reclaim the internet and help reach our goal by December 31? [Thermometer reached 87% of Goal] $3,300,000 USD [Donate now →]( Hello, Imagine a world where privacy is the default, where AI is trustworthy and enriches our lives for the better, and where the internet is open and accessible â a world where the internet belongs to the people. This world is within reach. Together, we can reclaim the internet. And grassroots donations play a pivotal role in this work. At the start of this year we set an ambitious goal of raising $3,300,000 USD in donations from Mozilla supporters like you. Let me be honest with you: just a month ago, reaching that goal seemed impossible. But since then, more than 15,000 people have donated to Mozilla from all around the world. And as of this morning, Mozilla supporters have contributed $2,785,180 USD towards our $3,300,000 USD goal. We're very close to our goal for the year, and I believe it's very important for us to try and reach it â even if we fall short. Iâm writing to ask if you will donate to help reach our final goal of $3,300,000 USD before the end of the year. [Please donate $25 to Mozilla before the year ends on December 31. Your donation will help reach our goal and provide important funding for our movement to reclaim the internet.]( [Donate now →]( Here's why this goal is so important: grassroots donations like these directly fund our advocacy, research, and movement-building efforts to reclaim the internet. Each donation helps secure better privacy standards, hold irresponsible tech companies accountable, and build more trustworthy AI. But perhaps most importantly, every donation to Mozilla is an investment in our movement â the more people donate, and the more money we raise, the stronger our chances are at succeeding in our work to reclaim the internet from big tech. If we reach our goal of raising $3,300,000 USD by December 31, we'll be able to do things like: - Deepen our campaigning efforts on privacy and AI so that we can do even more to hold big tech companies accountable for irresponsible behaviour and policies;
- Direct more funding for technology projects to take on the effects of climate change, like two we supported this year that use AI and data to forecast air quality in Paraguay and seven cities across Africa; and
- Expand our efforts to make voice recognition systems more accessible, like Mozilla Common Voice, our free voice recognition dataset available in 114 languages; and support for groups like Te Hiku Media, which works on data sovereignty licences so that voice recognition databases of indigenous languages aren't exploited for corporate profit. This year, we received 1,953 funding applications from activists, builders, technologists, and organisations looking for financial support for their projects. The proposals included AI tools for farmers in Uganda, online resources for LGBTQ+ youth in South Africa, and so much more. While we funded 130+ projects, that meant we had to say no to 93% of applicants. There's so much at stake for the future of the internet, and there's so much more that we can do to make sure the internet is in the hands of people, not irresponsible tech companies. Thatâs why Iâm asking you today, as a member of the Mozilla community. Can you make an end-of-year donation to Mozilla and help reach our goal of raising $3,300,000 USD by December 31? [Donate $25 to Mozilla today so that we can reach our goal and continue to work together to reclaim the internet from irresponsible tech companies in 2024 and beyond.]( [Donate now →]( Thank you for everything you do for the internet.
