LOCK ARMS WITH EFF—DEFEND DEMOCRACY
Person speaking into a megaphone with the text "Year-End Challenge"

Hi Digital Rights Supporter,


What a year it’s been. We’ve seen technology unfortunately misused to supercharge the threats facing democracy: dystopian surveillance, attacks on encryption, and government censorship. These aren’t abstract dangers. They’re happening now, to real people, in real time.

EFF’s lawyers, technologists, and activists are pushing back. But we need you in this fight.

GIve Today

If you donate to EFF before the end of 2025, you’ll help fuel the legal battles that defend encryption, the tools that protect privacy, and the advocacy that stops dangerous laws—and you’ll help unlock up to $26,200 in challenge grants.

📣 Stand Together: That's How We Win 📣

The past year confirmed how urgently we need technologies that protect us, not surveil us. EFF has been in the fight every step of the way, thanks to support from people like you.

This year alone EFF:

  • Launched a resource hub to help users understand and fight back against age verification laws.
  • Challenged San Jose's unconstitutional license plate reader database in court.
  • Sued demanding answers when ICE spotting apps were mysteriously taken offline.
  • Launched Rayhunter to detect cell site simulators.
  • Pushed back hard against the EU's Chat Proposal that would break encryption for millions.

After 35 years of defending digital freedoms, we know what's at stake: we must protect your ability to speak freely, organize safely, and use technology without surveillance.


We have opportunities to win these fights, and you make each victory possible. Donate to EFF by December 31 and help us unlock additional grants this year!


For your freedom online,


Christian Romero
