Today’s Wisconsin State Journal features a follow-up article focusing on the Women’s Fund. Read it here.
The sole purpose of the Women’s Fund is to pay for poor women’s abortions. At the time of the August 22 printing, the Women’s Fund had paid for 18,986 abortions in 34 years. Read the original article here.
Anne Nicol Gaylor, administrator of the Women’s Fund, claimed in today’s article the fund has taken in $50,000 in the past six weeks.
Last Thanksgiving, Gaylor wrote a fundraising letter to donors stating, “Of the 632 women the fund has helped so far this year, 147 were teenagers. Of these, nine were only 13 years old, and one, not yet a teen, was just 12!”
There is something wrong with this world when an article about a abortion-funding charity inspires a donor to write a check for $10,000. How exactly does a 12-year-old child’s abortion cause someone to whip out their checkbook?
What Gaylor fails to grasp is how far-reaching her actions are. Does Gaylor also provide for post-abortion counseling? Does Gaylor work to ensure that 12-year-olds are removed from the situation that resulted in their underage pregnancy?
What happens in the world when a life is ended before it has begun outside the womb? A gap exists forever, in more ways than we know.
Elizabeth Garibaldi, head of the La Crosse 40 Days for Life, has spoken openly about learning she was adopted as she was caring for her dying mother. Her birth mother was 14 when she had Elizabeth.
Pro-Life Wisconsin encountered a similar situation last February. The best friend of a 15-year-old girl called our office in a panic looking for pro-life crisis pregnancy counseling. The teen’s mother was pushing her daughter to have an abortion. Having been pregnant herself at 16, the mother said she did not want her daughter to wind up with the same mistake – as a teenage mom. Thanks to the efforts of a pro-life pregnancy counselor and the courage of the baby’s paternal grandparents, a little boy celebrated his one-year birthday this summer with his adoptive family.
This May, Pro-Life Wisconsin and 40 Days for Life of Madison held a pro-life baby shower for a family who chose life for their baby, after a sidewalk counselor intervened outside Planned Parenthood.
There are stories like this all around the country.
If Elizabeth Garibaldi’s mother had contacted the Women’s Fund for money to pay for an abortion, where would 40 Days for Life in La Crosse be today? These and so many more are the faces Anne Nicol Gaylor is intent on exterminating – people that have an opportunity to do something, be someone, have children, live life. Why is Anne Nicol Gaylor so intent on ridding the world of poor women’s babies?
The follow-up article also references legal action taken against the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel due to a pro-life opinion column the paper printed. Not surprisingly, the Women’s Fund, like most pro-abortion activists, is also in favor of stifling debate. As does NARAL, the Women’s Fund is only in favor of “choice” when it comes to killing babies. Read more about NARAL’s attempt to censor the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel here.
