CHAPTER GUIDANCE

Why LIFE Runners?  78% of post-abortion mothers said if they had encountered ONE supportive person or encouraging message, they would have chose life.  LIFE Runners wear a “REMEMBER The Unborn” jersey/jacket to be a supportive person with a life-saving message!
* Over 8,800 students (K to college) wear LIFE Runners jerseys at school and in their communities to be heroically Pro-Life, preventing abortions and changing culture.  With access to abortion in the mail or across state lines, we
market life to students as the preferred choice before they face an unexpected pregnancy.
