Socialist governments don’t exactly like it when Atlas Network and our partners advocate for freedom in their countries.
 
That’s what happened in 2015 when our partner, Instituto Mexicano de Competitividad (IMCO), led the effort to pass landmark anti-corruption legislation in Mexico.
 
As documented in the New York Times, the Mexican government attempted to install spyware on the iPhones of Juan Pardinas, general director of IMCO, and that of his wife.
 
The government started sending their phones aggressive text messages, trying to elicit Mr. and Mrs. Pardinas to click a link.
 
If clicked, the link would have quietly downloaded spyware to track everything on their phones from calls and texts, to even activating their microphones and cameras.
 
But work on the IMCO anti-corruption legislation continued, with the bill eventually making it through Congress, and IMCO winning the 2017 Templeton Freedom Award (with a grant prize of $100,000).
 
Our Latin American partners advocate for free enterprise and good government by taking on some of the most socialist (and dangerous) regimes on the planet.
 
But despite their challenges, they’ve delivered.
 
Since 2020, Atlas Network has supported 36 partners in 16 Latin American countries, helping them secure 136 wins for free enterprise.
 
We want to continue supporting our Latin American partners (plus add new ones), but we can only do it if we reach our first quarter fundraising goal.
 
Our end-of-quarter fundraising drive coinciding with the 2024 Latin America Liberty Forum got off to a strong start in its first week, but now we really need your help to pick up the pace. We’ve reached just 36% of our $20,000 goal with only five days to go.
 
Please, John, this is one of the best opportunities all year to send your first gift to Atlas Network and support the expansion of freedom around the globe.

Please send your first gift today, of any amount, and help us support our Latin American partner organizations securing wins for free enterprise. >>
