Just trying this out, so introductions: I’m in NGO comms, passionate about human rights, books, writing, and coffee. Big NWSL fan, and always happy for a walk about.
Thinking today of Al Fateh's article @iact.ngo posted almost exactly a year ago...

"The innocent civilians of Sudan are suffering, the kind of suffering that cannot truly be described."

Is anyone using Starlink, or debated using Starlink for internet services for their NGO? I have...thoughts...but I would be curious how people dealt with the benefit of the technology vs. the dilemma of the company.

Trump wants the military to use American cities as "training grounds" and Hegseth thinks rules of engagement are too strict. If these two--plus Miller and Homan--could get away with death squads, they would so do it. 1/2

Referencing an early speech he gave, Ambassador Mark Green reminded us, “the purpose of all foreign assistance is ending its need to exist.” He followed with the idea that we need to go back to this, to a belief in humanity and opportunity. @devex.com #UNGA80

We are 19% funded – 40% down on last year. Millions going without food, healthcare, protection. Aid workers killed at record levels.

This is an age of indifference – we must reform, regroup, renew. #UNGA80

Fun thing about being a small NGO is the crazy small asks you have. Guys, I need help buying a 1TB jump drive for our storytelling team in eastern Chad. It's literally $59. Can you pitch in a couple bucks and help me pick up this needed item for them? THANKS!!!

I recently asked for help funding a storytelling project for our AMPLIFi team. You all came through, the stories of refugees traveling to their farms is coming in, and I can't wait to share it with you.

Your ongoing support makes their work possible, amplifying refugee voices.

A quick, immediate ask:

Can you help the AMPLIFi team tell the story of refugee communities in Chad during the rainy season?

Just $126 will help the team rent motorbikes to travel from the camps to the farms to help tell this story. Every $1 helps.
