Dear
Viewer;
|
YOU CAN ENSURE THE
FUTURE OF CHOICE TODAY!!!
|
You
may already be aware that the ability to fund the purchase or
construction of an abortion facility is virtually impossible thru many
conventional financial institutions.
The
Abortion Access Fund, Inc., was established January 2nd,
2000, with a mission to develop a fund that could financially underwrite
abortion clinics at lower than standard, high risk interest rates and
hold the clinic mortgages. The
fund will then use the interest income generated to subsidize abortions
for low-income women in the form of both grants and loans.
Our
goal, for the first year, is to raise $500,000.00 and to place this in
mortgages at a 9.5% rate of interest, and to use $45,000 of the interest
income in grants and loans to financially dependent women in need of
abortions.
Our
most urgent challenge will be to help secure a mortgage for the Abortion
& Contraception Clinic of Nebraska. They have less than 30 days to
close a $350,000 mortgage. We
have already identified a second clinic in Florida that has had their
building bought and lease cancelled.
These happenings have alerted many other clinics that their
leasehold position is precarious. We
expect that this will yet become another tactic the anti-choice
community will use to make abortion unavailable even while legal.
You
can guarantee our mission will be achieved!
Even if you
can only make a small contribution, you will help us realize our goals. Your commitment is necessary for us to make this possible.
For as little as a few cents a day you can secure the option of
safe and legal abortion remains available for yourself, your
children,
your grandchildren and your friends.

Abortion Access Fund, Inc., is an I.R.S.
section 501 (c) (3) approved corporation under National Network of
Abortion Funds, Inc. Group Exemption # 9255.
AAF, Inc., and is in the process of seeking our own Exemption
Number.

Only fifteen of our fifty states offer Medicaid
funding of abortions. Your
support of our fund will enable many women in the other thirty-five states
as well as many that can not qualify for Medicaid to obtain an abortion
and not be burdened with an unwanted child.
URGENT!

Remember all donations to Abortion Access Fund, Inc.,
are tax deductible!
Every donor of
$50.00 or more will receive a full annual report with complete details of the
fund’s financials, activities. You
will also receive a quarterly news bulletin keeping you informed of significant
happenings in abortion clinics and the pro-choice community.
We are searching
for corporate and foundation grants to help us achieve our mission; but without
strong active support, from individuals like you, we will not gain the
momentum to launch our program
We also wish to
give you the opportunity to
identify ten of your most pro-choice friends, (more would be great) so that we
might forward a copy of this letter to them.
To make this even easier our web address is included that you
might forward this letter to as many of your email friends as quickly as
possible. http://www.abortionclinics.org/fundletter.htm
We wish to thank you in advance for your kind support.
And we ask that your every effort in life go to ensure women’s choice
in your community.
Very truly yours;
Mary L. Carhart, President and C.E.O.
P.S. I
know you receive requests every day to contribute to different organizations.
I feel this fund is special in that you will enable new clinics to be
built in areas that otherwise might not be served.
Also you will guarantee existing clinic owners, that are working out of
leased or rented space, the funds to purchase their clinic buildings and keep
them from falling victims to this conspiracy to close them down.
In addition you will be ensuring poor women access to choice.
Thanks! Mary
