For the Free Software Foundation Europe

      About the Free Software Foundation Europe 

      Free Software Foundation Europe is a charity that empowers users to
      control technology. Software is deeply involved in all aspects of our
      lives; and it is important that this technology empowers rather than
      restricts us. Free Software gives everybody the rights to use, understand,
      adapt, and share software. These rights help support other fundamental
      freedoms like freedom of speech, press, and privacy.

      The FSFE helps individuals and organisations to understand how Free
      Software contributes to freedom, transparency, and self-determination. It
      enhances users' rights by abolishing barriers to Free Software adoption,
      encourages people to use and develop Free Software, and provides resources
       to enable everyone to further promote Free Software in Europe.
