We Made Massive Waves This Summer!
Please help us make “March for Life Season” magnificent

This Summer, our team went all over the U.S. spreading the Consistent Life Ethic: Dallas for the Pro-Life Women’s Conference, DC for our Reason Rally outreach, Cleveland for our RNC outreach, Philadelphia for the DNC outreach, and back to DC for a CLE presence at the Supreme Court when Whole Women’s Health v. Hellerstedt was handed down. We have been featured in more than 30 news pieces in this year alone, with many of them quite complementary of our work. Take this article featured on the front page of the very liberal Slate Magazine: “The New Culture of Life” shines a very complementary light on our work and philosophy at Life Matters Journal.

Because of generous donors who made our trips to these events possible, we were able to share the Consistent Life Ethic with mainstream media organizations like Cosmopolitan, Vox, Slate, Reuters, RollCall, CSPAN, and the NYTimes. And of course, we spoke with hundreds upon hundreds of protesters, delegates, and regular ol’ Joe Schmoes who had never even heard of the CLE, many of whom proclaimed that “it is just so common sense to think killing humans is wrong.” We know that more than ever, in this divisive and hyper-partisan climate, our consistent message of human rights for all human beings is really resonating. And one of my friends at a major pro-life organization has told me time and again, “Now is the Consistent Life Ethic moment!”

So we have our big Winter outreach opportunities coming up: we have the Walk for Life in San Francisco, the National March for Life in DC, the Chicago March for Life, and the El Paso March for Life too! January is such a busy month for us and we have to make sure we are prepared with all the materials we need to be able to effectively share the message for human life and dignity.
Can you help us?
