support

1approval [uncountable] approval, encouragement, and perhaps help for a person, idea, plan etc:

support for

There was widespread support for the war.

in support

support of

Thompson has won the support of half the party.

The organisers are hoping to drum up support (=get many people's approval) from local businesses.

没有support to do的用法。。。
