$100 Million Donation to Pro-Abortion Human Rights Watch

This morning LifeNews.com reported that billionaire George Soros has committed to donate $100 million to the pro-abortion Human Rights Watch. New York based Human Rights Watch actively promotes abortion and even goes so far as to attack countries that protect the lives of the innocent pre-born.  Their report "A State of Isolation: Access to Abortion for Women in Ireland", claims that Ireland, which has not legalized abortion, is in violation of international law.  In August of this year HRW published "Illusions of Care, Lack of Accountability for Reproductive Rights in Argentina", in which they claim that country is also in violation of international laws.

Organizations like Human Rights Watch are received money hand-over-fist from wealthy liberal supporters like George Soros. Others, such as Bill Gates, Warren Buffet and Ted Turner, have each given millions of dollars to support abortion, sterilization and contraception of the human race.

Conversely, most pro-life organizations, including Greater Columbus Right to Life, struggle greatly to raise the funds we need to continue our work. We have very small staffs and operate almost completely through volunteer support.  Here at GCRTL, with only one staff member, we organize numerous education and advocacy events throughout the year, including
  • Rally for Life at the Ohio Statehouse
  • 40 Days for Life campaigns
  • BloodMoney: The Business of Abortion
  • Life Chain
  • Quarterly training events
  • College grant and mentoring program
  • Speakers Bureau
  • Information booths at local fairs and festival
  • And even more. . .

Just think of the impact we could have if we were able to grow our organization and to more fully fund these and other programs, such as a stronger youth education and advocacy program, seminars and workshops with visiting lecturers on topics such as care for the elderly and medically vulnerable, the value of adult stem-cell research (as opposed to life-taking embryonic stem-cell research) and others. 

Please consider how you can help us to achieve our mission to promote a community the protects innocent human life from conception until natural death, and our 20/20 vision, to bring an end to abortion in Greater Columbus by the year 2020. 

One way you can help is by donating online today. 

Another way is by attending our annual fundraiser, Tailgate for Life, on September 26.  Our speaker, Rebecca Kiessling, will share her incredible story of learning the circumstances of her conception at the knifepoint of a serial rapist, and how God has used her to advance the cause of life.  Register today.  Better yet, sponsor a table and invite your friends to join you to hear Rebecca and to be generous in their support of GCRTL. 

Thank you for supporting our work. Together, we can make a difference; we can save lives; we can bring an end to abortion in Greater Columbus by the year 2020. 

Always for Life,

Ruth Yorston
