You don't need tor installed on your local machine to contribute to the Tor network by running a AWS-based relay.
Did you spin up an AWS EC2 micro instance using the image on cloud.torproject.org? If so, then (at least in principle) you don't need to do anything more, but it's probably a good idea to ssh in and check to see that everything is running. You could also edit your torrc to supply the correct contact info and give your relay a special name!

I want to contribute to Tor, maybe I mean relay? That's why they suggested the easiest way was thru AWS. So I got an account that's free, sort of. Thanks for replying.
