"Today, Tuesday 12th July, Courage, the international organisation that protects whistleblowers and activists, launches a major funding drive for core costs. We manage the legal and public defence of truthtellers in the most politicised cases, from Edward Snowden to Chelsea Manning, from Barrett Brown to Lauri Love - and we fight for whistleblower protections and the public's right to know generally. Two years on from our launch, we have a fundraising target of £100,000 to secure. If we are unable to meet our needs for core funding within the next month we will be forced to step back our work.
Whilst we are just able to meet the immediate needs of our current individual cases we are launching this drive for core funding to enable us to stabilise, ensure we can pay the staff needed to manage and coordinate these cases, grow our core projects and to be better prepared to help the persecuted whistleblowers and activists who request our assistance every day.

Edward Snowden tweet about it:
