How and Where to Contribute

I noticed that a number of readers, upon hearing of the need of emergency funding for Nell's patient, offered to make a donation.  For reasons of patient privacy, we cannot tell you who we are but I can tell you how to make a donation.  One organization that helps women nationally is WRRAP.  They are wonderful, just wonderful.  I could tell you so many stories of women they have helped!  Pregnant women who have lost their jobs, women who are homeless, women whose personal finances are committed to their children. Even working women sometimes earn too little to be able to pay for an abortion and still pay their rent.  WRRAP's staff is volunteer so whatever you donate goes right to the clinics for a specific woman whose situation we present to them.  Whenever WRRAP has money, they immediately spread it around!  And I have never seen such an increase in requests!

These days, with so many women losing their jobs, losing hours at work, losing their homes, the requests are greater than ever.  As a result, WRRAP is always short of funds.  Any amount you care to send will be so appreciated, is so needed!  You can go directly to their website (www.WRRAP.org) and contribute via Paypal as one of you wished to do.  Look for the link to Make a Donation. Or you can send a check directly to them at:

WRRAP
2934 1/2 Beverly Glen Circle
Box 169
Los Angeles, CA  91403

Anything you can spare will go to women just like DaShay.  Your contribution, added to those of others, will given out to women all across the US.  The need is great and the need is now.  Be as generous as you can.

Thank you for asking how you could help.

The National Network of Abortion Fund (NNAF, www.nnaf.org) also supports abortion funds across the country. They are great.

Now that I know such places exist I'd love to be educated on how to get help paying for an abortion. I'm in need of fincial aid for an abortion. I'm researching several resources to obtain help.

I've worked in abortion clinics in the Midwest for several years and cannot begin to express my deep feelings of gratitude to WRAPP!!!! They are incredibly supportive of a woman's right to choose and work hard to support as many women as possible!

Thank you for all that you do!
