Atlas Air Worldwide Expands Commitment to Workforce Development with University of Alaska Anchorage
Company Affirms Support of Efforts by President Trump and Secretary Duffy to Modernize U.S. Airspace Atlas Air Worldwide Expands Commitment to Workforce Development with University of Alaska Anchorage WHITE PLAINS, N.Y., Aug. 12, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Atlas Air Worldwide Holdings, Inc. ('Atlas'), the leading global provider of outsourced aviation logistics solutions, today reaffirmed its partnership with the University of Alaska Anchorage (UAA). Leaders from Atlas and UAA, along with faculty and students, were joined by United States Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy at Merrill Field in Anchorage. The Secretary is spearheading the Trump Administration's efforts to invest in the aviation workforce, modernize the air traffic control system, enhance safety, and address nationwide shortages of pilots, controllers, and mechanics. 'President Trump and I are on a mission to make our airspace the envy of the world. We will build a brand-new air traffic control system and address a chronic shortage of controllers and pilots,' said U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy. 'President Trump's One Big, Beautiful Bill delivered over $100 million into the Don Young Alaska Aviation Safety Initiative to deploy state of the art technology and train the next generation of aviation talent. I applaud Atlas Air Worldwide for doing their part to contribute to this mission.' Aviation is essential to Alaska's economy, with Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport (ANC) ranking among the world's top five busiest cargo hubs. The University of Alaska Anchorage is widely recognized for its top-tier aerospace program, which ensures students are equipped with the expertise needed to fill these critical roles. To further support Alaska's aviation workforce development, Atlas has also announced the renewal of its scholarship program, which helps students offset educational costs as they prepare for careers in aviation. 'We are proud to continue our partnership with the University of Alaska Anchorage by creating opportunities to advance aviation education,' said Michael Steen, Atlas Air Worldwide Chief Executive Officer. 'By investing in workforce development locally, we are advancing our commitment to aviation in Alaska, and to the resilience of the broader aerospace industry. We are fully dedicated to supporting the efforts led by President Trump and Secretary Duffy to make our airspace the global gold standard.' The new round of funding builds on Atlas-sponsored scholarships announced in 2024—four for maintenance technician students and three for aspiring pilots—and aims to develop a robust pipeline of talent for the sector. 'We are grateful to Atlas Air Worldwide for its continued investment in UAA and our students,' said Ray Weber, Dean of UAA's Community & Technical College. 'This generous donation is transformative, helping us build a more qualified workforce that is vital to Alaska's economic future and the broader industry. Thanks to Atlas, our students are gaining the training and credentials needed to pursue fulfilling careers, securing brighter prospects for the state's workforce and beyond.' Atlas Air Worldwide in Alaska Anchorage's proximity, within 9.5 hours by plane of 90% of the industrial world, positions it as a vital hub for global commerce, training and talent development, and it plays a key role in Atlas' operations. Annual Atlas departures at Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport (ANC) have grown to more than 7,500 in 2024, supported by over 700 Anchorage based Pilots and ground staff. About Atlas Air Worldwide Atlas Air Worldwide is a leading global provider of outsourced aircraft and aviation operating services. It is the parent company of Atlas Air, Inc., Titan Aviation Holdings, Inc., and Polar Air Cargo Worldwide, Inc. Our companies operate the world's largest fleet of 747 freighter aircraft and provide customers the broadest array of Boeing 747, 777, and 767 aircraft for domestic, regional and international cargo and passenger operations.

Left-wing dark-money megadonors, including George Soros, fund group organizing protests against Trump's DC crime crackdown
Several lefty, dark money organizations, including George Soros', contributed more than $20 million to groups funding protests against President Trump's crime crackdown in Washington, DC. Free DC, a 'fiscally sponsored special project' of progressive nonprofits Community Change and Community Change Action, brought 150 demonstrators near the White House Monday to protest Trump's plan to deploy National Guard troops in the district and federalize the city's police department. 'Do not obey in advance' and 'Take up space' are among Free DC's 'guiding principles,' and the group urges supporters to 'go outside at 8:00 PM and bang pots and pans, sing, chant, or make noise for five minutes' every night 'of this occupation.' Advertisement Free DC has scheduled multiple events since Monday's anti-Trump protest, including a 'Cop Watch Training,' suggesting further protests are planned amid Trump's effort to make DC the 'safest, cleanest and most beautiful cities anywhere in the world' – by ramping up law enforcement efforts and removing homeless encampments from public places. 3 Free DC has called for protests every night 'of this occupation.' REUTERS Community Change and Community Change Action, the groups bankrolling Free DC's activism campaign, have been the beneficiaries of millions of dollars in donations from hedge-fund tycoon George Soros' Open Society Foundations and Tides Foundation, and the dark-money Arabella Advisors network, according to an analysis shared with The Post. Advertisement 'It is ironic that a protest to ostensibly 'Free DC' was hosted by Community Change, a group funded by massive amounts of outside dark money to push a pro-crime agenda,' Caitlin Sutherland, the executive director of nonprofit watchdog Americans for Public Trust, said in a statement. 'DC is facing shootings, carjackings, and assaults, and yet progressive groups like The Pritzker Foundation, George Soros, and the Arabella Network all spend millions of dollars to manufacture protests that weaken our communities,' Sutherland added. In 2023 alone, Community Change and Community Change Action received $4 million from Soros' Open Society Foundations, $680,000 from the Arabella network, and $145,000 from the Tides Foundation, Americans for Public Trust found in publicly available financial disclosures. Arabella Advisors, a Washington, D.C.-based consulting firm, manages several funds that finance left-wing groups, including the Sixteen Thirty Fund, Windward Fund, New Venture Fund, which have all given money to Community Change and Community Change Action since 2020. Advertisement Similarly, Soros' Open Society Foundations and Tides Foundation and Tides Advocacy (part of the billionaires' Tides Network) are far-left grantmaking organizations. 3 Free DC is project of two Soros-backed progressive groups. AFP/Getty Images 3 Free DC organized a protest against Trump's order in district on Monday. AP Between 2020-2023, Community Change and Community Change Action received $12.6 million from Open Society Foundation, $5.6 million from the Arabella network, and $1.9 million from the Tides network – under numerous grants labeled for such purposes as 'civil rights, social action, advocacy' and 'social welfare activities.' Advertisement Additionally, Community Change received $1 million across 2021 and 2022 from Future Forward USA Action, a Democratic Party-aligned super PAC affiliated with Future Forward PAC – one of the major political groups that backed former Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 election. It's unclear how much of this money has been directly used by Free DC, which says on its website it began organizing in 2023, in response to a congressional effort to block a controversial update to DC's criminal code. Free DC and Community Change did not respond to The Post's requests for comment.
