Thank you for being there from day one of my pregnancy. If it weren’t for you, my boyfriend and I probably would’ve made the wrong decision. I really appreciate the help and the information that was really important for me to know.

I can’t thank you enough for all that you have done for me. I’ve met a lot of negative people in my life that made me feel that negative was all life had to offer but you gave me hope and that is priceless to me. Thank you so much and I promise to make you proud.

I never wanted an abortion but I might have had one had it not been for you. You made a difference in my life.

I am so happy that I am going to have a beautiful son. I don’t know what I would have done if you hadn’t been there for me. You were there for me when no one else was.

Thank you for all of your help and encouragement during my pregnancy. It was the most difficult time of my life. I am so grateful I did not take the “easy” way out of a tough situation by having an abortion.

I just want to thank you for all you have done for me. I could not have done it on my own and I really appreciate the help you gave. I think it is a great thing you’re doing.

I write this short note thanking you guys for your support. Your support has really helped me along the way. Knowing that someone cared enough to call and wonder about me really made me feel good.

Thank you for taking the time to care and make that call that always made my day. Thank you a million times.

I don’t remember what was said on my visit to Birthright, but I do remember one thing: RELIEF. I think I actually smiled that night. At the time, my world was coming to an end. After coming to Birthright, a strength filled me. That is making a difference!

Thank you for being there since day one when I did my pregnancy test. It is nice to know there are still good people around. I can’t thank you enough for your support. It really means a lot to me all what you have done, calling me and worrying about me. I felt that I wasn’t alone in this. Thanks for caring.

Thank you very much. Your kindness touched my heart. I was in a difficult situation but thank you because you guys helped me with information. It’s so nice to work with someone like you who has so many good listening skills. Gracias.

Thanks for the emotional support. It feels good to know there are good people out there looking out for others during the most difficult times in life. A big ‘shout out’ to this organization for catering to the needs of pregnant women.

Thank you so much for everything, especially all your support. It really made a difference having someone call and find out if things were going okay. For that, I will always be grateful.

From the time when I was unsure of my pregnancy you’ve encouraged me and assured me that everything will work out. Thank you for all your support. You made a difference in my life.

Thank you so much. I don’t know what I would have done if you hadn’t been there for me. You are so wonderful and caring. You were there for me when no one else was.

Thank you so much for everything. You and your staff have really helped me in such a big way. Words can’t thank you enough. Thanks again for all you have done. You really put my mind at ease and made things so much better of not feeling alone.

Thank you for all of your help and encouragement. It was the most difficult time of my life. I am so grateful for your help. I have never been happier or felt so peaceful.

Without your help, I would have been afraid to face the future. The friendship and information and everything you provided. A thousand thank yous for helping so many women and their families.

Thank you for your support. It meant a lot to me during such a hard time in my life.
