Hello
A decade ago, the threat to the Web was that it was being gathered up and controlled by a single, centralized organization - Microsoft. We didn't want that to happen, so we founded Mozilla, and got to work on Firefox.
Back then Mozilla was a small band of people, mostly volunteers and a few employees. Everyone thought what we were trying to do was impossible. They didn't see that the future could be different - and much, much better. It took six long years to create Firefox, and that's when consumers and industry experts came to realize how different the world could be.
Today we are being driven into an online world of monitoring and control and opportunities determined by others far, far away from our lives. That is why Mozilla is needed now more than ever.
This is the only fundraising email we send to readers of Firefox + You, and there's just one day left in our year-end campaign. Make your online gift to Mozilla right now.

Online life is now a combination of desktop, mobile, connected devices, cloud services, big data, and social interactions. Our digital lives are becoming more centralized and controlled by just a few large organizations.
I don't want any of us to be owned and tracked by giant multinationals or governments, or told which of the Web's astonishing possibilities we're allowed to enjoy. I don't want that for myself, for you or for the rest of the world's citizens either. This is not the right trajectory for the Internet or our lives.
Our relationship to the Web has changed in the last decade, but Mozilla's mission is as important as ever.
This is the last email we will send to you this year asking for a donation to support our work. Make your online gift to Mozilla right now.

Of course changing the trajectory of the Internet feels impossible to many people - just as it did 10 years ago. But I believe we can have great technology, exciting products, great user experiences, innovation, and freedom as well. That's why Mozilla is here.
Mozilla is a non-profit so we can put these principles first - always. We've never been able to do this work alone. Mozilla's continued success depends on people like you all over the world standing with us, so don't wait: Donate now.

Not only does Mozilla build products that put users in control, we also run education programs such as Webmaker aimed at teaching people the skills they need to make the web and the world a better place. People everywhere are helping us build the Internet the world needs - an Internet where the public good comes first. We know whether it's profitable or not, it's the right thing to do.
This is how Mozilla will win: Building products and communities that work to break down closed systems that limit online choice and opportunity. Together we are building this, just as we did before with Firefox. It's a huge and important challenge.
I hope you will join us.
Thank you for all of your support,
Mitchell Baker
Executive Chairwoman
Mozilla Foundation
P.S. There are only hours left in Mozilla's year-end campaign, so don't hesitate, and donate today. Every gift counts, and on average it takes just 47 seconds to make a quick donation online . Thanks so much for all that you do for Mozilla.
