Subject: 2018 Is Our 30th Year! Don't Let It Be Our Last!
2018 Is Our 30th Year! Don't Let It Be Our Last!! In the last twelve months, we had $95,000 in expenses and $70,000 in donations. That’s a $25,000 deficit. We have already cut our staff from three to two in 2013. We simply can’t cut expenses any further. Bottom line: our ministry depends on you. With fewer than 180 active donors, we really need your support. If you have given in the past, but haven't done so recently, we really need you back. We can't afford to lose you. If you've never given, we need your support too. Our active donors have been incredibly loyal and generous over the years. But we are in desperate need of new donors to keep us going, and help us grow our ministry If you are wondering whether our ministry is worth your support, please take a look at our 30-Year Review. It describes how we've published over 30 peer reviewed studies, eight books, and reached literally millions through our web sites every year. Together, we have elevated public awareness about how abortion harms women, men and families, and exposed the truth that most abortions are the result of exploitation, deception, pressure and coercion. I am convinced that this is a major reason for the 35 percent decline in abortion rates since 1988. It's getting harder and harder for the abortion industry to hide the truth from women and convince them that abortion is their only way out Most importantly, we are having a personal impact on those who've contacted us looking for help. We've received countless notes of thanks for preventing abortions and for helping women and men find mercy, healing, and peace in God’s good grace. Unfortunately, we've never been able to afford a professional fundraiser. As a result, we have constantly struggled to get by while averaging less than $100,000 per year in donations. And it’s getting HARDER!! Still, we know God will provide through people like you. As our partner in this ministry, you will make a difference ... by spreading the truth, saving lives and preventing harm to mothers and fathers, and helping those suffering to find healing.
