Wisconsin College Students for Life
You Can Make a Difference for Life on Your Campus!
OUR MISSION...
Our mission is to make euthanasia, infanticide, abortion
and destruction of human embryos socially,
ethically and legally unacceptable solutions
to human problems and to promote positive
alternatives to each of these acts.
- The number of abortions occurring in
Wisconsin each year has steadily declined from
over 19,000 in 1982 to fewer than 8,300 today!
- Polls indicate we are winning
the culture of life war!
For the first time, more Americans self-identify
with the Right-to-Life position.
- A widely reported 2009 Gallup poll found 51%
of Americans now call themselves pro-life
compared to 44% the previous year.
Conversely, 42% now call themselves pro-choice
compared to 50% the previous year.
- A Pew Research survey found that most of this
strong shift to the Right-to-Life view was among
young people ages 18-29.
WHAT WE DO...
- Construct on-campus
displays like the Cemetery
of the Innocents, symbolizing
the more than 50 million
babies lost to abortion since
the tragic 1973 Roe v. Wade decision by the United States
Supreme Court.
- Host nationally known
speakers who bring their
passion for life and powerful
stories to our events.
- Hand out pamphlets with
convincing, factual information
on right-to-life issues.
- Sponsor and/or
participate in campus
debates on right-to-life issues.
- Help students who are
pregnant to be aware of
their options and encourage
them to make life-affirming
decisions.
- Work to inform and
educate the student body
about current legislative
issues.
STUDENT GRANTS...
You could earn a $1,500 student
grant by organizing projects and
events that raise Right-to-Life
issue awareness on your
university or college campus.
- Each fall grants are awarded
to students attending various
Wisconsin colleges and
universities.
- Right-to-Life training and
materials are provided by
Wisconsin Right to Life.
- Learn more about the grants here.
Along with the grant recipients, we have been in contact with numerous other college students who have asked for help in starting a chapter of Wisconsin College Students for Life on their campuses.
We are very excited about what can be accomplished as we serve on these campuses. If you would like more information on what we do or how you can get involved in saving precious unborn lives, click one of the links on the right.
Thank you and God bless you!
