Through our end-of-year donation campaign we managed to raise ~103 000€, which
is nearly half of our yearly budget for core work and maintenance. A big
thanks to everybody who donated!
To fill the gap, we are extremely happy to be part of [DuckDuckGo's privacy
crowdrising challenge](
https://spreadprivacy.com/duckduckgo-privacy-
challenge-2018/).
If you haven't donated to Tails recently, now is a great opportunity to
support us as your donation is likely to be matched by DuckDuckGo. It will
also help us get one of the grand prizes awarded by DuckDuckGo, up to $50 000.

your contacts and on social media by sharing or tweeting our [campaign
