Abolish Abortion

HELP STUDENTS FOR LIFE OF AMERICA TO:

1.) Impact the Election, -and-
2.) Train Tomorrow’s Pro-Life Leaders

Do you ever feel like the “causes” in Facebook don’t do much? They recruit people, but then what?

Recruit your friends to the “Abolish Abortion” cause in Facebook.

Read more to learn how this cause is funding Field Agents for Students for Life and impacting the election and beyond.

HOW WE IMPACT THE PRO-LIFE MOVEMENT

The Students for Life Field Agent program is one of the most effective programs in the country. First, because it costs so little money. And, secondly, because it works in the area of most need.

Planned Parenthood is counting on college campuses for TWO things: clients and voters. Students for Life undercuts them in both ways. That’s why we work on college campuses. We want to impact college students from a peer-to-peer perspective and reduce abortions and increase pro-life voters while we train future pro-life leaders.

Our Field Agent program helps develop Students for Life chapters that EDUCATE women that abortionists are targeting, AND our field agent program provides structure to chapters to IMPACT THE ELECTION.

HOW YOU CAN HELP

Recruit your friends to the “Abolish Abortion” cause in Facebook!

We have a donor who wants to see how many people we can get on the “Abolish Abortion” cause. Right now, we have 125,000 members. If you can help us to reach 250,000, this donor will provide the funding for ONE FIELD AGENT. This means we will have an agent trained and in the heartland of America helping to impact college campuses.

If you help us increase membership, we can fund ONE FIELD AGENT this Fall!

HOW A FIELD AGENT IMPACTS THE ELECTION (and beyond!)

Students for Life helps campus groups by providing them with training and resources so that they can:
• effectively recruit members
• properly educate other students
• raise money for events and speakers
• work with liberal faculty
• register and mobilize voters in KEY STATES
• plan and run kick-butt events
• draw nationally-recognized guest speakers to campus
• and more!

By recruiting other people to the “Abolish Abortion” cause, you will help put a trained Field Agent to work and impact 45 college campuses!

Did you know there are college groups that want to be “pro-life” but they don’t know how to recruit members? Or worse yet, some groups get started, but two years later, when everyone graduates, the groups have to start over. Our Field Agents help make sure the group keeps going year after year.

CAN WE GROW?

This graph shows the membership growth for another group in Facebook. They went from zero to 80,000 in 2 months! And from what I remember in my Calculus class in college, that’s called “exponential.” Right now, we have 125,000 members in our cause. With a little push, we think that can double.

Please join the Facebook cause, “Abolish Abortion” and encourage your friends to join it too.

THE IMPACT OF THIS PROJECT

Since its start in 2006, Students for Life has helped start 194 NEW campus pro-life groups… bringing the total to 442 groups nation-wide. By getting one more field agent, we can reach 45 new campuses. And we’re targeting states strategically, so that we can have the most impact on the election.

Look at the map to the right. Can you believe that these states represent 106 Electoral Votes? I remember from my PoliSci class in college that we need 270 Electoral Votes to keep a pro-life White House. These states in blue are all “in play.” This means that MoveOn.org wants them bad. And they could win them, too. All but two of the states in blue here went to the “George W. Bush” column in 2004. We can’t afford to lose 3 of these states this year!

HOW STUDENTS FOR LIFE HELPED MY CAMPUS

Here are testimonies about what the Field Agent program did for a couple college campuses.

Lucy McVickerLucy McVicker, former President of Portland State Students for Life

“Students for Life of America helped me restart our group after a tough leadership transition. A Field Agent came to my school and assisted our group in recruiting new members through tabling and helped train myself and other members of the group in campus activism and apologetics. He assisted us in establishing our group constitution and mission statement and helped us get approved by our school. Throughout the rest of the semester, the Field Agent followed up with me weekly to see how group progress was going and ask if I needed anymore assistance.”

“Without Students for Life, the tools necessary to re-build the group would not have been as readily available. I am grateful for their diligence and charisma.”

“Students for Life of America helped found our organization, Louisiana Students for Life, under the leadership of then student, Ben Clapper. SFLA gave our officers much need training in fundraising, campus organization, leadership, and activism. After helping start our organization, SFLA has remained a continual guide to our organization, sending Field Agents to our annual conferences to help train students from across the state of Louisana.”

“Students for Life’s help was integral to our success.”
