A woman's story makes it all worthwhile
Here's one from the The CAIR Project in Washington state:
A 23-year-old mom of two from Idaho, working and going to school, but with no health insurance, was able to get an abortion with help from CAIR for the last $125 she needed. Thanks, CAIR!

Carolina Abortion Fund
North Carolina
In October 2011, a group of activists organized to form a new abortion fund in North Carolina. Several months of volunteer work and one amazingly successful bowl-a-thon later, the Carolina Abortion Fund began funding abortions for low-income women in North Carolina in 2012! The Network is proud to welcome a new fund in one of the areas where it's needed the most. (Photo © Joanna Palmisano)
After I reached the abortion fund, I slept for the first time in weeks.
Now my husband and I can plan for how to take care of our family.
