 Wikipedia uses banners with an appeal to donate at the top of the page to
 raise money. Tor could do the same, (possibly) with the following change:

 Instead of / in addition to a generic "we need money to run this service",
 it could display (an excerpt of) a story from a Tor user or developer.
 "Tor has saved my life while I was in Syria", "I am working on Tor
 because...", and so on.

 We could also add those stories on the donation page itself (maybe in a
 box with the stories sliding through, like this image gallery:
 http://foundation.zurb.com/docs/components/orbit.html)

 This is somewhat related to #10264 (Ticket).

 This Idea came up in the workshop "How you can help Tor" during 30c3.
