We are asking radio listeners in the area to consider becoming a Voice For Life, someone willing to promote the sanctity of life by reaching out to help women facing an unexpected pregnancy.
What can I do to get involved?
By giving $95 to become a Voice For Life, you can help a woman at risk for an abortion receive the help and counseling she needs just when she needs it most. Most importantly, the $95 will go toward our goal of making sure more of these clinics are able to offer women at risk for abortion receive an ultrasound. This allows them to see truth with their very own eyes … their child is a living, human being who deserves to live!
What do you mean by a woman who is “at-risk for abortion?”
