Hi john  

A year post-Roe. Post-Roe. Everything about that still makes me nauseous and angry. But if the past year has taught me nothing else, it’s that we're in this together, and that this fight. isn’t. over.

Reflecting On This Past Year, AAF Was Ready And I Am So Grateful.
From the moment A-leako’s opinion surfaced, Our AAF rapid-response messaging squad kicked in to give you the info you needed. We were able to immediately reach out to our nation-wide network of abortion providers and abortion funds to send care packages and supplies to help with their emotional support as they urgently got their patients the care they needed. I feel super proud that in such a time of crisis, when clinics and funds needed help, they knew AAF would show up.

But Our Most Important Work Was Bringing All These People together to tell YOU what they needed during Operation Save Abortion

So many of you felt vulnerable and asked, “What can I do?” I was so happy we could answer that question and give you ways to activate. Our Operation Save Abortion activist training and vetting program gave people an opportunity to learn directly from brilliant, experienced repro leaders about what help is actually needed by the movement. To date, nearly 12,000 people have applied for this volunteer program.

And That’s Only Part Of Our Work

We have ramped up our Adopt-A-Clinic program, which has been a vital resource for clinics struggling under new restrictions, huge patient loads or relocating across state lines. 

Our Expose Fake Clinics program hosts monthly virtual action nights to alert people about the deceptive practices of fake clinics who have been allowed to run rampant in not just red states, but across the U.S.

And Through It All, AAF’s Feminist Buzzkills Podcast Continues To Be THE Source of Abortion News

Each week on the podcast, Moji and I break down the nonstop abortion news to help you connect the dots about who continues to fuel these attacks on our freedom, while also featuring the stories of those most impacted by these bans. Each week we address the rage you have with facts and fun, to give you some hope to fight another day. 

AAF Was Able To Meet These Immense Challenges Because Of Dedicated Supporters Like You. The fight to regain our right to abortion has only just begun. We are committed to amplifying the diverse voices that make up our movement, to continue creating opportunities for all of us to be the change, while speaking out against the fascists who threaten our bodily autonomy.

So today I am asking for your support to help us continue this work.

Your support means the world to me and to my amazing AAF team, the independent clinics we support, the volunteers we help become activists, and everyone looking to preserve our bodily autonomy.

This is why we fight,
XO Lizz
