Dear John,
This summer we are celebrating our supporters -- because without their
support -- we wouldn’t make the same impact across Texas. Because of your
generosity, we work to ensure that young people have access to the
resources and information they need to live their best lives.
One of the best ways to support our organization is through the CART Club.
The CART Club is our sustaining donors program. Signing up is easy! [1]
Just use our secure system to set up automatic monthly payments in the
amount of your choosing. CART Club members receive special benefits and are
the foundation of our individual donor program. We cannot thank CART Club
members enough for their contribution to our mission.
One of our CART Club members, Kim Wolf shares below why she supports the
Texas Campaign…

TEXAS CAMPAIGN (TXC): Hi Kim! Thank you so much for your support. Please
introduce yourself.
KIM WOLF (KW): My name is Kim Wolf and I am a Managing Director at
Accenture, focused on how technology can transform healthcare and public
service.
TXC: The Texas Campaign’s mission is to reduce unintended teen pregnancy
through research, advocacy, collaboration and training. Our vision is that
every Texas teen has access to the information and resources needed to
prevent unintended pregnancy. Can you tell me why that resonates with you?
KW: Texas Campaign’s mission of advocacy and training -- supported by
data -- resonates with me. Education has always been an enabler of
opportunity, or at least a way to provide a grounding in what choices
exist. Every teen has a bright future, but not every teen has the same
chance to achieve that future.
TXC: Can you tell us how your own work or experience intersects with our
mission?
KW: One of the key things I’ve been seeing in healthcare is something we
call the “social determinants of health.” This really means that where
you are from and how you grew up influences your health as much, and often
more, than your genetics. The mission of Texas Campaign is focused on
moving the needle for teens in Texas to minimize how social factors
influence the likelihood that they have the education they need to make
decisions that impact their short and long-term health and opportunities.
TXC: We are working toward a more empowering approach to adolescent
reproductive health, are you seeing the same thing in your sector?
KW: While I’m not focused on the adolescent community, empowering
individuals through education and preventing chronic conditions versus
focusing on treatment is 100% a trend across healthcare.
TXC: Lastly, why should others consider giving to support our mission? Is
there anything else you would like to add?
KW: Supporting the Texas Campaign as a CART member provides me with the
opportunity to make a difference to Texas teens, both by being an adult and
enabling other adults in their communities, to listen to teens on potential
awkward questions about their reproductive health.
