I have a feeling that every one of us is exhausted in some way (or in many ways). The pandemic, the racial reckonings, the extreme abortion bans popping up across the country — it's a lot.

If you need a reminder of the GOOD that we're doing together, I hope this gives you a pick-me-up and inspires you to keep fighting:

“I grew up in a very close minded culture where you couldn't talk about sex nor could you ask questions... Planned Parenthood gave me all the information I needed... They made me feel less alone and never judged.”

- PATIENT

“I would have not been able to live out my young adult life the way that I wanted without Planned Parenthood's services.”

- NANEA, HAWAII

"Planned Parenthood guided me through the confusing and frightening world of appointments, clinics, and chemo. Without their care, I wouldn't be here.”

- JAMIE, NEW YORK

Your persistence and passion are worth it. These stories are possible because of dedicated supporters like you. Thank you.

I know these are challenging times for sexual and reproductive health care. But Planned Parenthood health centers will never stop providing care to those who need it, and stories like these remind me why the work we do is so important, and how we're changing — often saving — people's lives.

Thanks for being here, and for sharing your strength and your stories.
