SPONSOR: Live Action
This fall, Live Action has set a goal to help save 300 babies from abortion by reaching women considering abortion before they make that decision. About 1 in 5 women who see Live Action's content say it changes their mind, and on their $44.86 cost-per-life model, $44.86 can help save 1 baby, about $90 can help save 2, and $1,000 can help save 22. Live Action is also leading the push to defund Planned Parenthood.
