Pro-Life High School Student Gives Out Fully Stocked Diaper Bags to Pregnant Peers in Need
Mary Briganti | June 11, 2020
Going into the SFLA Fellowship program, I was looking for a group of like-minded pro-life student activists, a support system within the pro-life movement, and individual leadership growth. What I didn’t realize at the time is that I would get all that and more! I live in an upper middle class area with a well to do school and

Pro-Life High School Leader Raises $1,300 for Local Pregnancy Center
Mary Briganti | June 10, 2020
In January of 2019, I heard about SFLA’s Fellowships and was instantly interested in learning more. I wanted to be a fellow because I am so passionately pro-life and truly admire the work that SFLA does which made me want to be part of that.  During a Respect Life Week I organized for this fellowship, I witnessed my school stepping up when

Brenna Lewis | June 9, 2020
You remember Ruth.  Ruth is a student at Pikes Peak Community College in Colorado.

Ruth came from a religious family, but she still contemplated getting an abortion. So Ruth scheduled an appointment at a Planned Parenthood in Denver. While

Mary Briganti | June 9, 2020
This past fall, as our school’s Students for Life group began to plan our diaper drive event, we knew we wanted to provide resources to local parents in need. So we set our sights on the national high school diaper drive record: 41,000 diapers.  We began by talking to teachers around the school, asking them to consider incentivizing their students to bring in diapers for the drive. We asked

Three Babies Saved from Abortion in ONE WEEK!
Brenna Lewis | June 9, 2020
Even though stay-at-home orders are still in place in many cities, abortions are still happening. So the Pro-Life Generation has worked hard to make sure women are heard and helped in a way that encourages them that they (and their children) deserve better than abortion. Especially when Planned Parenthood is busy bombarding them with junk like this:Â Last week,

Students for Life Helped 20 Mothers Choose Life This School Year!
Brenna Lewis | June 4, 2020
Most of the time, pro-life advocates will never know the full impact of our efforts. A pro-choice person might change their mind about abortion because of a video we shared, or a pregnant mom might drive right past the abortion facility and never show up to her appointment because she saw a message of hope from someone standing on the

Just before the world was asked to stay inside, Marquette University’s Marquette for Life group completed their second annual Baby Box Project.

Brenna Lewis | April 8, 2020
The Students for Life group at the University of St. Francis has worked very hard this year to build bridges, find common ground, and create resources on campus that will help parenting students find success! Their journey to assist pregnant and parenting students began when the group decided to join a “diversity roundtable” on campus.

Pro-Life Leader Lays Out The Post-Roe Plan For The Pro-Life Movement
Brenna Lewis | February 27, 2020
Roe v. Wade is soon to fall, either directly if the Supreme Court reverses it, or indirectly, as President Trump’s pro-life federal judicial appointments continue to rule to allow states to pass pro-life laws, creating a de facto overturning of Roe. Kristan Hawkins, the president of Students for Life of America, recently had an op-ed published in the Washington Examiner that lays out a
