Let Them Live

This organization helped me during pregnancy, and I appreciate that. But 6 months later, and now years later I find myself asking a much larger question: Is saving a pregnancy enough if we are not committed to saving the futures of the mother and child afterward? Women's advocacy cannot stop at birth. Child advocacy cannot stop at birth. If a woman loses her education because she cannot afford childcare, if she cannot work because her child has complex medical needs, if both mother and child become trapped in generational poverty, how is that considered a victory? I was encouraged to continue my pregnancy during one of the most vulnerable periods of my life. The support I received was temporary. The responsibility I carry is lifelong. A truly pro-woman and pro-child movement would fight just as hard for affordable childcare, educational opportunities for mothers, healthcare access, disability support, career development, and economic mobility as it does for pregnancy itself. Because a child deserves more than simply being born. A child deserves the opportunity to thrive. And women deserve more than being told they are strong enough to endure hardship. They deserve a society that invests in their future and their children's future long after delivery day. When organizations celebrate births while mothers drop out of school, struggle to work, and wonder what kind of future their children will inherit, we should be asking difficult questions. Survival is not the same as flourishing. Bringing children into the world without ensuring families have the support to escape poverty should concern anyone who truly advocates for women and children. I am grateful for the help I received. But gratitude should not silence an important conversation: Are we creating conditions where families can truly succeed, or are we asking women and children to bear burdens that society refuses to share?

Pro life or pro choice -we all want to help women! this organization is amazing and they have taken care of some many women and helped them get back on their feet and keep their baby. So many moms don’t want to abort their baby but feel like they have to because of financial reasons - but let them live is here for them and have helped so many women and babies!

I am a donor and regular supporter of Let Them Live. Their organizational flow is simple, open, and easy to see the impact of. I really appreciate how they interact with their members. (Heartbeat Club, for example.) Of course, the greatest impact is being able to support a mom in very real, tangible ways. If you're interested, check them out- I highly recommend, and the support stories are amazing.

I donated to Let Them Live for a Christmas gift to my sister who wholeheartedly supports this ministry! She has been so excited to see how lives are saved and moms and their babies are helped in very tangible ways by the donations sent to them. My sister received follow up information saying the impact her “Christmas gift” had had in individuals’ lives who decided to let their babies live! Also, when people talk to me about the desperate situations some moms find themselves in, I tell them about this organization. Most people are very surprised to know there are people raising money to help moms and their babies through difficult circumstances.

I donate monthly to this wonderful organization. It’s my way to help women who feel desperate or pressured to abort. Let Them Live supports these women who feel they have no choice, and they support them before, during and after pregnancy. The women are not only helped financially, but emotional support is given, they are helped with employment and housing, and a baby registry is created to make sure they have everything they need when baby arrives. I am so thrilled when pictures of the babies saved are posted on social media. These beautiful little humans have been given the right that they deserve to live.
