Never has the role of Feminists for Life been more central to advancing the needs of pregnant women and their children.

FFL’s track record of successfully working across political and ideological divides will be vitally important in the coming year as we work to systematically eliminate the root causes that drive women to abortion.

These are unprecedented times—with unprecedented challenges and unprecedented opportunities.

And it will take unprecedented support—all of us pulling together to make the difference.

Like most charities, FFL has been hit hard by the “perfect storm” of economic challenges and the unprecedented funding of political campaigns at all levels. Our strategic spending cuts and the sacrifices of many have meant that those we serve haven’t felt the shortfall—yet.

I am inspired by the dedication of FFL’s Board of Directors, each of whom has stepped forward to join FFL’s Honorary Co-Chair Margaret Colin and me in the annual year-end match. And a former board member is once again generously offering to double-match your new or increased monthly gift. Employer matches can also make your tax-deductible donation go twice as far.

I hope you will search your heart and make a gift that is significant to you.

Feminists for Life, a nonsectarian, nonpartisan organization, has emerged as the crossroads where forward thinkers committed to woman-centered solutions meet.

Through years of sacrifice and strategic planning, we have made the crucial difference for the most vulnerable—for pregnant women who are poor and the working poor, women being pushed into unwanted abortions, those facing violence, and college-age women with the highest rate of abortion, who are also our future leaders in all fields.

Only by looking back can we see how far we come. Only by looking forward and investing in our next steps will women and children feel the magnitude of our service.

For every woman, every father, every precious life, let’s take the next step together.

Because women deserve better,

Patricia Heaton
Honorary Chair

P.S. Please respond to our match before December 31 in order to qualify for our matching gift programs. Please make a gift that is significant to you at this time of your life. Make an investment with a track record of tangible returns. Thank you.

Later this week Feminists for Life will release our newest video, this one featuring Chaunie, who shares the challenges of a student facing an unplanned pregnancy—and why FFL’s work is vitally important.
