Guadalupe Hope Society

TO AID WOMEN WITHOUT REGARD TO RACE CREED NATIONAL ORIGIN OR ECONOMIC STANDING THROUGH THE PROVISION OF AVAILABLE RESOURCES SUPPORT AND EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS THAT THEY MAY COMPREHEND AND WORK THROUGH THE ALTERNATIVES TO EFFECT A DECISION OF THEIR OWN CHOICE CONCERNING THEIR OWN PREGNANCY.

IN ORDER TO BE ABLE TO HELP OUR CLIENTS WE HAVE TO BE ABLE TO PAY FOR SUCH ITEMS AS OFFICE RENT UTILITY BILLS A NURSE PHONES ETC. INSURANCE ETC. HENCE A LARGE PART OF OUR TIME AND EFFORT ARE DIRECTED TO SOLICITING DONATIONS. THROUGHOUT THE YEAR WE USUALLY HAVE ONE MAJOR FUNDRAISING EVENT AND SEVERAL SMALLER FUNDRAISING EVENTS THROUGHOUT THE YEAR TO PAY FOR THE COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH HELPING WOMEN MAKE INFORMED DECISIONS REGARDING THEIR PREGNANCY.

OUR FIRST CONTACT WITH A YOUNG WOMAN IS OFTEN A PHONE CALL TO OUR OFFICE AFTER THEY HAVE BEEN INTRODUCED TO OUR ORGANIZATION BY AN AD BY A CONCERNED FRIEND OR BY A CHURCH MEMBER. AS CHRISTIANS WE ARE CALLED TO PROMOTE THE SANCTITY OF AND RESPECT FOR HUMAN LIFE WHICH INCLUDES PROTECTING THE UNBORN ABUSED AGED HANDICAPPED SUFFERING DYING AND DISADVANTAGED MEMBERS OF OUR SOCIETY. THERE ARE VIABLE ALTERNATIVES TO ABORTION WHICH ARE OF UTMOST IMPORTANT TO SOCIETY. THE FAMILY IS THE CORNERSTONESOCIETY AND IS GIVEN HIGHEST ESTEEM. AFTER SPEAKING WITH THE CLIENT WE ASK THE MOTHER IF SHE WOULD LIKE TO BE INTRODUCED TO HER BABY VIA THE ULTRASOUND MACHINE. THE ULTRASOUND MACHINE OFFERS THE MOTHER A UNIQUE MOMENT BECAUSE SHE NO LONGER HAS TO IMAGINE HER BABY SHE CAN ACTUALLY SEE HER LITTLE ONE. ULTRASOUND MACHINES ARE VERY EXPENSIVE TO PURCHASE BUT SERVE A VERY FUNDAMENTAL TOOL IN OUR MINISTRY OF PRO-LIFE! NO MATTER WHAT THE MOTHER DECIDES FOR HER BABY GUADALUPE HOPE SOCIETY WILL STAND BY THE MOTHER THROUGHOUT THE TERM OF HER PREGNANCY AND EVEN BEYOND THAT.

A FUNDAMENTAL INGREDIENT OF OUR PRO-LIFE MINISTRY IS PRAYER. WE ASK ALL OF OUR DONORS VOLUNTEERS DIRECTORS ETC. TO PRAY FOR ALL MOTHERS AND THEIR BABIES.
