“Penelope” is a young mother of two and has aspirations to work in the medical field.* When she received news of her pregnancy, it came as both a shock and a disappointment. There were two reasons for this reaction: her schedule and the father. Her hours at work are such that taking time off for a baby would be extremely difficult. The father’s first reaction was to pressure her into an abortion. Penelope did not want to abort, but her situation soon became much worse.

Her home recently received damage that caused extensive leaks throughout the whole house. The walls began to rot and the roof is badly in need of repair. Penelope had no way to afford these costs, as her income only allows her to afford basic needs. To make matters worse, she has no support from friends and family. Along with the father, they tried to convince her that abortion was the best option. Despite not wanting to go through with it, the damage to her home and her lack of finances left her feeling like she was out of choices. Reluctantly, Penelope scheduled an abortion on September 27th. Shortly after making the appointment, she discovered Let Them Live on Facebook. After learning about what we do, she decided to reach out.

“I don’t know how I’ll be able to cope with an abortion,” she said to our counselors. “I want to keep my baby. I would not hesitate to choose life if I could pay my bills. But I don’t see how I can.” Penelope said many of the same things we hear from moms who reach out to us. She wants her baby so much, but her circumstances are so hard that she has come to believe abortion is her only choice. It does not have to be this way. If we stand together, support her with love, and meet her needs, we can give her the confidence to do what she truly wants: choose life for her precious baby.

Here are the expenses that our crisis pregnancy counselors identified so that Penelope can confidently carry her pregnancy to term:
Safe Housing + Utilities | Groceries | Pregnancy and job / financial counseling | Car Payments | Clothing and Other Necessities | Debt Relief | Baby Items | Other Related Expenses
Note: These expenses may be adjusted in the future based on additional expenses incurred during and after her pregnancy. With your help, we can save Penelope and her baby from abortion! Donors will receive updates on Penelope and her baby throughout and after her pregnancy.
