These hosting platforms all contain a large and confusing list of download links. To make things easier for the NGO, provide a few specific links; that is, links for Windows, MacOS, and Linux; for the desired locale. Also tell the NGO that its users can download their own copy of Tor Browser by emailing gettor@tp.o.

There are two options. Whatever option we go with, we should monitor the bridges and take action if any go offline.

Tell the NGO that they may also want to firewall their bridges' OR port (as long as #7349 is still unfixed). Mention that we are happy to help them test their bridges, to make sure that everything is configured correctly.

=== 2.2 Supply the NGO with bridges
|
|
|
We are closely working with volunteers who maintain a pool of reliable and fast obfs4 bridges in various data centres around the world. We can take a subset of these bridges and send them to an NGO for private distribution. Keep track of what bridge was sent to what NGO.

== 3. Provide instructions on adding bridges

Provide instructions on how to add these private bridges to Tor Browser. Provide our [https://tb-manual.torproject.org/bridges/ official instructions] and, if available, localised instructions (e.g., [https://tb-manual.torproject.org/zh-CN/bridges/ in Chinese]).
