Hello, The internet should be a place where technology works for people. Right now, irresponsible tech companies are building products without oversight, and harvesting personal data for targeted advertising and opaque AI systems. A different future is possible, and Mozilla Fellows are leading the way. In January, we announced seven new Senior Fellows — leaders in policy, research, and movement-building — joining our community alongside the ten Tech & Society Fellows who began their work late last year. These experts are tackling urgent issues at the intersection of technology and society, from ensuring AI models and services are transparent to fighting for data rights and digital equity. Mozilla Fellows' work transforms visions into action, laying the groundwork for a more just digital world. We’re proud to share that four Mozilla Fellowships alumni were recognized on TIME’s 100 Most Influential People in AI list in 2024. But here’s the truth: Progress like this doesn't happen overnight. Reclaiming the internet is a long-term mission that demands consistent effort, resources, and a committed global community. A single donation is powerful, but a monthly gift fuels long-term change. When you give monthly, you provide reliable support that allows our Fellows to focus on what matters: driving meaningful progress, challenging irresponsible tech practices, and building a safer, more inclusive internet. That’s why we’re asking: will you start a monthly donation today to support Mozilla Fellows and create long-term change? Mozilla Fellows are at the forefront of building a more inclusive and ethical digital ecosystem, tackling some of the most pressing issues of our time. These leaders are shaping a future where smart cities and voice technology are inclusive and equitable, while advancing open, accessible research for the public good. Monthly donations are crucial to the work of Fellows because they provide the sustainable funding necessary to drive impactful, long-term change to put people in control of their experiences online. Consistent funding ensures our movement can plan boldly for the future, allowing influential programs like the Fellowships Program to thrive and create lasting progress. The ongoing commitment of our global community of monthly donors fuels meaningful change. Your monthly donation will empower these leaders to: - Conduct groundbreaking research on the design, impact, and regulation of AI systems.
- Shape policies and legislation that safeguard an open, inclusive internet.
- Build long-term strategies that address the intersection of technology and modern life, amplifying civil society voices globally.
Will you join Mozilla as a monthly donor today to support the vital work of Mozilla Fellows? Every monthly recurring contribution — no matter the size — will provide our movement with the sustainable support necessary to reclaim the internet and put people first. Thank you for everything you do for the internet. Michael Whitney
