Hey john,

I wanted to make sure you saw this email from Lizz. We're celebrating her birthday all month and all she really wants is to provide more support to abortion providers and to build a stronger pathway for accessible abortions and life-saving reproductive healthcare for EVERYONE. Help us make this her best birthday ever and give monthly to our team of bad-ass activists.

And you get an awesome shirt!

Thank you so much!
-- Stephanie and Team AAF

Subject: Hello, Leo Season! This is my BIRTHDAY MONTH and I have A GIFT FOR YOU!
To: john  <[email protected] >

Hey john,

Wait. What is this sensation that I’m feeling on my birthday? Could it be…hope? Dare I say enthusiasm!? Well, hot damn! A tidal wave of optimism is dispelling the funk of persistent existential dread and I. AM. HERE. FOR. IT! Give me all the girl anthems, hilarious couch memes, and to my fellow childless cat (and dog) ladies… LET’S GET TO WORK!

And if you make a monthly donation of $20 or more, we'll give you a bewitching AbortionAF shirts to wear while you do that work.

My last few birthdays have been bummerfests of abortion bans and bat-shit extremists. But this year, thanks to the evidence gathered by the Abortion Access Front Team, I’ve had early birthday gifts in the form of domestic terrorists finally getting sentenced for violating the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act. And the icing on my reproductive rights cake is hearing politicians finally say the word “abortion” when they vow to protect our bodily autonomy.

That said, I celebrate with cautious optimism. Saving abortion and democracy is a long haul and we need all hands on deck. On my birthday, I’m hoping you will give a gift - not to me, but to AAF, in the form of your continued support to help us keep on doing what we do best.

Twelve states are pursuing ballot amendments to protect abortion rights, and the vaginal goon squads are pulling all kinds of dirty tricks to get those signatures purged and the initiatives disqualified. We need tons of help to get them passed in November, and that includes you! We are out there championing clinics and working 24/7 making sure Project 2025 lands in the ash heap of horrible ideas, because it’s gonna take every one of us to make sure the white Christian nationalist end game is destroyed.

REMEMBER, it’s AAF out here:

We can only do all of this with your generous support! Make my birthday even happier and PUH-LEASE GIVE GENEROUSLY!

I am so, so humbled that you believe in me, my team and the work we do. I am gonna go have a drink to celebrate my latest trip around the sun, and so I hope you will celebrate with me by celebrating AbortionAF! 

Cheers!
