Trust is based on one’s confidence and assurance that what is promised will be produced. Performance is everything when asking other people to give of their time, talent and treasure. Promises ring hollow when they are not followed with consistent results. This monthly report highlights the dedicated work of several skilled women who every month since 2004, when the Women’s Center opened, helped hundreds of expecting mothers avoid the trauma and tragedy of abortion.
The following graph shows what was accomplished by the relatively few dollars donated in 2010 to the nonprofit Women’s Center for Health, Hope, & Healing, Inc., by people like you. The 62 confirmed birth’s is a conservative number because it does not include other clients expected to deliver their babies so far this year but we are unable to reach them for confirmation. In addition, fifty-two of our active clients reported they experienced 79 previous pregnancy and infant losses in various ways. Many of these women suffer serious unresolved emotional and spiritual pain. Helping them address their pain is something we’re poised to do with additional support.
In recent years the Women’s Center has become a learning laboratory to study and find effective ways to better serve troubled pregnant women. Our Center staff specializes in helping these women. When first seen two-thirds of our clients were abortion vulnerable. That number is consistently cut in half after our services. In the Center’s first four years of service (2005-2008), local abortions declined by 770 or 400% over the net decline of only -193 between 1996-2004. We played a significant role in that reduction and can do even better with additional trained staff and funding.

As we look back on our accomplishments it’s obvious our strategy to change hearts not laws to reduce abortions in the Cincinnati Metro Region is working. As we look ahead to the remainder of this year and next it is in pursuit of a clear vision, plan and a process we’ve developed to expand our work and serve many more women. Our work and its future success is near at hand and does not depend on outsiders involved in politics or the courts to make something happen. Rather, we plan to do something more, i.e., offer women the help, hope, and healing they desire and deserve.
The Women’s Center is a nonprofit charity supported by tax-deductible donations from the general public, plus other organizations and churches. If you helped us in the past, thank you! If you are passionate about helping women become the “hearts of their families” instead of becoming broken hearted why not help us offer them the hope and healing they need? Donations should be sent to the Women’s Center at the address on this report or can be made through PayPal as found on the Women’s Center for Health, Hope, and Healing, Inc., Facebook Fan Page. Thank you for your generosity!
