Aradia Women's Health Center, a twice-weekly target of anti-abortion
protests, is turning demonstrations into donations, with a program
called "Pledge-a-Picketer" that allows the abortion and family-
planning clinic's supporters to pledge a donation every time picketers
show up on Aradia's First Hill sidewalk. According to Aradia
spokeswoman Amie Newman, the campaign is "our way of letting the
protesters know that their presence is actually helping Aradia." So
far, Newman says, the clinic has raised around $3,300 from the
campaign; to pledge, call 323-9497.
