+## Cy Pres Awards â Consumer Privacy and Privacy Online
+
+_Cy pres_ awards are funds distributed as a part of class action lawsuit
settlements in the United States. When the totality of the funds cannot be
distributed to class members, they can be distributed to nonprofit, advocacy,
and research groups that generally represent the class members. Consumer
privacy _cy pres_ awards can help the Tor Project to educate individuals and
organizations about how to retain their privacy online, advocate for privacy
protections, and build important free, open source technologies that prioritize
privacy.
+
+### About the Tor Project
+
+The Tor Project is a U.S.\-based 501\(3\) nonprofit founded in 2006 with the
mission of advancing human rights and freedoms by:
+
+- Creating and deploying free and open anonymity and privacy technologies,
+- Supporting their unrestricted availability and use, and
+- Furthering their scientific and popular understanding.
+
+The Tor Project and its surrounding community develops and distributes some of
the most popular and widely used free, open source privacy technologies: Tor
Browser and the Tor network.
+
+Beyond developing technology, the organization helps people retain their
privacy online. The Tor Project has educated thousands of activists,
journalists, human rights defenders, librarians, consumers, and average
internet users about how to protect and retain their privacy online.
+
+The Tor Project is recognized as a leading expert on privacy online, and is
[often turned to by the media for information about how individuals and
consumers can protect their privacy](https://www.torproject.org/press/).
+
+In the past, the Tor Project has been the recipient of consumer privacy _cy
pres_ awards through the Rose Foundation\'s Consumer Privacy grants. The
organization has more than a decade of experience successfully delivering on
projects with funders and partners as varied as the U.S. State Department --
Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor; National Science Foundation;
