Through our Pledge-A-Picketer Program, even our
protestors help support Planned Parenthood of Western Pennsylvania.
Graphic signs. Verbal harassment. Distorted information. Each week,
Planned Parenthood of Western Pennsylvania patients, staff and supporters
visiting the downtown headquarters are faced with anti-choice protestors
pacing outside our clinic doors. These "sidewalk counselors," as they call
themselves, carry grisly signs, yell at patients as they enter and leave,
and harass and annoy passersby.
What can YOU do about it?
Pledge-A-Picketer Program participants may pledge a specific
amount per picketer or make a single contribution. Protestor numbers are
tabulated each month and multiplied by your pledge amount to calculate
your donation. Supporters receive updates on protestor activity and on the
funds raised.
Your generous donation toward this campaign will:
- Provide secure and safe access for patients and staff
- Support advocacy for legislation to help keep reproductive health
services safe, legal and accessible
- Provide affordable, confidential and essential reproductive health
care and sexuality education to thousands of individuals off all ages
each year
- Help us turn the tables on the protestors and ensure safe access by
supporting The Pledge-A-Picketer Program.
