CounterCrisis Northwest has funded two women seeking abortion services in a clinic in Portland, Oregon. One had to travel by bus across international borders and the other came from several states away. Both had current or recent domestic violence issues related to their pregnancies, and one was a refugee. Both were ineligible for state assistance. Neither would have had the ability to pay if we had not stepped into the gap, and if the clinic doctors had not waived their own fees - getting paid only if all other expenses (including transportation and lodging and food) were met. We really love supporting this clinic!
These women cannot get funded anywhere else, lovely people.
Now the same clinic has called asking for funding for a teenage girl who is currently homeless. But we are dangerously low on funds. She is 15 weeks along, and things get more complicated regarding the procedure pretty soon.
If you have an extra few dollars, any amount will help, please go to
