As Thanksgiving approaches, I find myself reflecting on the countless blessings that sustain Good Counsel and the many lives that have been transformed because of your generosity. Your support provides hope, healing, and a future for the mothers and babies who come through our doors. For that, I am deeply grateful.

This year, as Good Counsel gives thanks for all we’ve accomplished together, the ongoing challenge of providing 24/7 high-quality care for our moms and babies amid rising costs is on the forefront of my mind. From food and childcare to utilities and housing, expenses have risen substantially. Coupled with donors redirecting contributions to political campaigns, our budget has been significantly impacted.

Yet, despite these challenges, our commitment remains firm. For nearly 40 years, Good Counsel has been a beacon of hope for vulnerable women and babies, and with your continued support, their needs will be met.  

During this season of gratitude, I humbly ask for your continued generosity. To meet our obligations to pregnant mothers and babies in our care, Good Counsel must raise $2,080,205.95 by December 31. This is about $600,000 more than last year!

Your gift, especially at this time, will make a profound impact on the lives of families who rely on Good Counsel for safety, guidance, and mercy. Together, you and I can ensure that no mother or baby goes without, even as costs increase around us.

Thank you for being a vital part of the Good Counsel family. It is my hope that your Thanksgiving is filled with joy, peace, and the knowledge that your kindness is changing lives.

With heartfelt thanks,

Help Us Save Moms
