+Freedom of the Press Foundation launch a support campaign for Tor
+-----------------------------------------------------------------
+
+In his report for November [XXX], Roger Dingledine wrote: “We've also been pondering
+lately how to do a fundraising or donations drive, to help move us off our
+reliance on government funders.” The good news is that Tor has many supporters.
+
+The Freedom of the Press Foundation just started a campaign to support
+encryption tools for journalists [XXX] that is going to last for two months.
+The campaign is gathering funds for Tor core development work, the Tails live
+system [XXX], the encrypted mobile communication tools RedPhone and
+TextSecure [XXX], and the encrypted email platform LEAP [XXX].
+
+Spread the word and help make the campaign a success [XXX]. Direct donations
+to The Tor Project are also always possible [XXX].
