I've spent the last 24 hours with Planned Parenthood staff who are going through all the same things you are. Anger. Fear for ourselves, our families, our country. The pain of mourning that threatens to crowd out everything else.
Horrified, furious, heartbroken, grief — we are feeling a lot at this moment. But there is one thing we are not feeling: unprepared.
Planned Parenthood has spent a century in resistance, and we know that people are still counting on us today. Especially today. As patients look to Planned Parenthood health centers for care, and as the fight for our rights becomes even more precarious, we need you with us.
Please, help respond to the immediate crisis and power the fight to come with a donation today.
At nearly 600 Planned Parenthood health centers around the country, clinicians and providers went to work today and opened their doors to provide the reproductive health care patients and communities rely on.
When we say
care no matter what, we mean it. Planned Parenthood will never stop working to build a world where all people can get the care they need.
The only way to secure, expand, and protect abortion access is with help from people like you.
Will you make an emergency contribution?
Even if it doesn't feel like much, against all that we face, your gift is meaningful if it helps one patient. If it pushes our movement one inch farther. If it helps you find a spark of hope and resilience within you.
I have spent my life in movements for justice and freedom, and I can tell you — that's what a movement
is. It is the strength we inspire in one another. It is a courage born of love, to defend the vulnerable people in our lives. A movement is the way we turn all our fury and sorrow into determination, and our determination into change.
In this painful moment, I am asking you to continue to be a part of this movement.
Making a gift today is a crucial, powerful way to do that. I hope you will stay with us.
In solidarity,
Jacqueline Ayers, Senior Vice President of Policy, Campaigns, Advocacy
