Stories

"I really needed someone who cared enough to find a way to stay in touch with me. And Birthmothers did. They gave me a Friend."

Jocelyn, birth mom

"I’m thankful for all the baby items I received from people who are connected with Birthmothers, and most grateful for the emotional support I received from my Birthmothers Friend, Leslie. Now I know why people say that tangible gifts can come and go. A Friend like Leslie is irreplaceable."

Isabelle, birth mom

"I appreciate my Birthmothers Friend so much. She has been so good to me. When things are hard, I just think of her and I feel like I can handle all of this."

Adriana, birth mom

"When it seems everything is falling apart, you can’t give up. You have to believe and go forward. God will always listen. He did for me. He gave me a Friend."

Tania, birth mom

"Girls who come from a family like mine need the love and support of friends and Jesus. I needed my family’s support – but it wasn’t there. I’m glad that you created a place for women like me. Thank you!"

Charlotte, birth mom

Considering Abortion?

You're not alone.

84% women who have had an abortion say they would have kept their babies under different circumstances.

How many pregnancies end in abortion?

Half of unplanned pregnancies in American end in abortion; 24% of all pregnancies (excluding miscarriage) end in abortion.

The 3,733 abortions occurring every day in America are ... more than all the lives lost in the September 11, 2001 destruction of the World Trade Center." Randy Alcorn in Why Pro-Life?

What do Americans think?

Only 1/3 Americans find abortion morally acceptable; 2/3 find it morally wrong.

An overwhelming number of teens find abortion abhorrent ... maybe it's because millions of other teens who would have been their friends and peers never made it out of the womb.

Help in making your decision

8 out of 10 pregnancy care centers (PCCs) report that abortion-minded women decide to keep their babies after seeing ultrasound images.
