At ATS+Partners, we are resolute in our response to the recent "Stop-Work" Order issued by the Trump administration, which has abruptly halted numerous development projects. This directive has not only disrupted millions of projects but also significantly impacted the lives of countless individuals and communities who depend on these initiatives for their well-being and progress.
As a company dedicated to supporting mission-driven organizations, we recognize the severe threat this cessation of funding and project activities poses to the progress we have collectively achieved. In these challenging times, we must unite, show solidarity, and support one another more than ever.
Stop-Work Order: The Importance of Solidarity and Support
Solidarity is the cornerstone of any thriving community. It binds us together, enabling us to overcome adversity and achieve our shared goals. In the context of development work, solidarity means standing with those most affected by the "Stop-Work" Order and ensuring their voices are heard and their needs are met.
Supporting organizations that focus on development work is crucial. These organizations are on the front lines, addressing critical issues such as poverty, education, healthcare, and environmental sustainability. By providing them with the necessary resources and support, we can help mitigate the negative impacts of the "Stop-Work" Order and ensure their vital work continues.
ATS+Partners' Commitment to Support
At ATS+Partners, we are committed to being a steadfast partner for mission-driven organizations. Here are some ways we are supporting our partners during these trying times:
Advocacy and Awareness: We continue to advocate for everyone's welfare, especially the resumption of funding for important projects that help the underrepresented and marginalized sector. By raising awareness about the critical importance of development work, we aim to influence positive change.
Resource Mobilization: We aim to identify alternative funding sources and resources. This includes connecting partners with foundations, private donors, and other organizations that can provide financial support.
Capacity Building: We are offering capacity-building services to help our partners navigate the challenges posed by the "Stop-Work" Order. This includes providing training, technical assistance, and strategic planning support to ensure they can continue their work effectively.
