Cloudflare Project Galileo. I only just heard about this Cloudflare initiative, though it's been around for more than a decade:
If you are an organization working in human rights, civil society, journalism, or democracy, you can apply for Project Galileo to get free cyber security protection from Cloudflare.
It's effectively free denial-of-service protection for vulnerable targets in the civil rights public interest groups.
Last week they published Celebrating 11 years of Project Galileo’s global impact with some noteworthy numbers:
Journalists and news organizations experienced the highest volume of attacks, with over 97 billion requests blocked as potential threats across 315 different organizations. [...]
Cloudflare onboarded the Belarusian Investigative Center, an independent journalism organization, on September 27, 2024, while it was already under attack. A major application-layer DDoS attack followed on September 28, generating over 28 billion requests in a single day.
