The George Tiller Memorial Abortion Fund Has Been Established


http://www.feministe.us/blog/archives/2009/05/31/in-hon... /

snip//

The Network has also received many requests from women who received care from Dr. Tiller and from activists in the reproductive justice community to set up a Fund in Dr. Tiller’s name. In response, we have established the George Tiller Memorial Abortion Fund to assist the women to whom George Tiller dedicated his life. The Fund will assist women in the second trimester to pay for abortion care, as well as pay for travel and lodging en route to providers. To donate to the Fund in Dr. Tiller’s name, please send contributions to:

George Tiller Memorial Abortion Fund
c/o National Network of Abortion Funds
42 Seaverns Ave.
Boston, MA 02130

You may also donate online at http://www.nnaf.org/tiller.html

4. I wish no one would ever face the need for the procedure, but everyone should have equal access.
... It's shameful that only wealthy women may have access to a legal health procedure that at times is the only good choice for the life and health of the patient.

Some of the stories I have read are just awful... having to carry a dying baby to term, among other scenarios. I wish that no one who needed a late term abortion would ever have to go without it.

7. Skinner says that people get "sticky-blindness."
That is why he doesn't even sticky his own official posts until they have floated a couple days. So just keep this kicked as long as you can and ask people you know to K&R too! :hi:

15. i wish they would endow a chair at a medical school.
part of the problem is that many of these procedures are no longer mandatory in medical schools.
