ASAP SUPPORTS FUNDÂ Â #GIVINGTUESDAYNOW
GivingTuesdayNow is a global response to a critical need for emergency support and funding due to COVID-19. A gift to the ASAP SUPPORTS FUND will provide immediate support for ASAP as it deals with unexpected costs and unforeseen circumstances in supporting the education and support of our providers across New York State.
ASAP will be asking people on our daily calls to consider making a one-time gift to the ASAP SUPPORTS FUND today. This is an individual level gift from people to help support the work ASAP is doing to make resources available to our members and in cases like the daily call, others who are not members.
ASAP will also be making a specific ask of each of its member organizations to consider an additional contribution by way of voluntary dues in proportion to its size and ability. The purpose of these funds is to help support the work of ASAP as it supports our member organization during the next few rounds of budget modifications and COVID-19 support.
ASAP will be making specific sponsorship requests of our vendors sponsors so that may help support the work of members through the advocacy, support, and education of members. In some cases, these will be opportunities in addition to regular conference sponsorships and in some cases, these will be for specific projects or opportunities.
The work of ASAP has been instrumental in supporting, and creating awareness of the needs of the prevention, treatment, recovery, and harm reduction services benefiting so many New Yorkers. In this critical time of historic change and challenge, it is important that we have a well-resourced and strong New York State association working on our collective behalf.
We ask you to support the work of ASAP, especially now, starting today, on GIVING TUESDAY NOW! Click here to make a donation.
