Zcash Foundation Mission Statement
==================================
Our mission is to serve the users of the Zcash protocol and blockchain. Our activities span three main pillars:
Per our [501(c)3 application](IncorporationDocs/Zcash%20Foundation%201023.pdf), our mission is to be a public charity dedicated to building Internet payment and privacy infrastructure for the public good, primarily serving the users of the Zcash protocol and blockchain. Our activities span three main pillars:
1. Community
-----
We support the transition of Zcash into a large and healthy community with diverse stakeholders, held accountable to its userbase in the broadest sense. Our activities include sponsoring a conference for developers, miners, and other community members, to help jump start the conversation. We also plan to organize mailing lists that give voice to groups of stakeholders that might not otherwise have them.
Our own governance structure is designed especially with public transparency in mind (see our /VALUES) file. So that can be effectively held accountable to the community we serve.

The Zcash protocol and the open network it powers is valuable, privacy-protecting Internet infrastructure; it should be developed and maintained by an open and diverse community of experts and enthusiasts, and it should remain always a tool for financial privacy available to the general public.
