From Julie A. Burkhart, Founder and CEO, Trust Women Foundation:
As this year comes to a
close, you should be proud of what you accomplished in 2016.
Your support of women made
it possible for us to open the first new reproductive health care facility in
Oklahoma that provides abortion in more than 40 years.That is more than FOUR
DECADES, which is incredible. You did that. Because of you, Trust Women was
able to provide high-quality reproductive health care to more people than ever
before. If that's not a reason to pop some champagne tonight, I don't know what
is.
I also want to remind you
that no matter who is in the White House or in the governor's office in the
states we serve, we will continue to provide direct access to abortion care for
women and their families in underserved areas in the Midwest and South. We also
will work toward the repeal of anti-choice legislation and for the passage of
policies that would truly improve the lives of people in those regions and
across this great country. Please rest assured that we will harder than ever
this coming year for the rights of people everywhere.
That's why I'm asking you to
consider giving $73 (in honor of Roe v. Wade), $35
(the cost of a birth control visit) or $25 (the cost of emergency
contraception) before the clock strikes midnight. As always, your contribution
is tax-deductible.
I
wanted to share a note from one of our patients to remind you of what you do, each day, to improve
the lives of women.
