Save lives by helping women choose life by giving them the opportunity to view their unborn children on ultrasound machines at pro-life pregnancy centers. This initiative is funded by Knights of Columbus state and local councils with matching grants from the Supreme Council’s Culture of Life Fund.
The Knights of Columbus works together as an organization to purchase ultrasound machines for qualifying pregnancy centers. Discounted prices for select machines are offered through preferred pricing agreements arranged by the Supreme Council. The list of preferred machines is provided to sponsoring councils after the pregnancy center is approved for funding by the local diocese and the Supreme Council. After the state and/or local council raises 50% of the cost, the Knights of Columbus Supreme Council will provide the other 50% to complete funding for purchase of an ultrasound machine. Or, if the council raises 100% of the cost of a vehicle outfitted to serve as a mobile medical unit for a pregnancy center, the Supreme Council will provide 100% of the funds for an ultrasound machine to be used in that vehicle.
A young lady told me she would have an abortion no matter what I said…
When she came back for the ultrasound, she said twice, ‘I have prepared myself —
even if I see a heartbeat or body parts, I am not going to change my mind.
You know what happened?
As soon as she saw her baby’s heartbeat — and I mean as soon as she saw her baby’s heartbeat — she changed her mind!”
An ultrasound machine offers a woman a “window into the womb” that gives her the ability to see her unborn child, to hear his or her heart beating, and to recognize the miracle of the life within her.
Yes, I will like to donate to save the life of an unborn baby and his/her mother from a life of guilt and regret. I would like to donate:
