national abortion access bowl-a-thon fundraiser

I might be opening up a huge can of worms here but why the hell not. I'm sick of talking about Target and Twitter.

If nothing else, you have to like the tag line


Anyone else want to join the Houston team?

Oh my gosh, I love this.

We had a golf-a-thon last year - was super fun!

Yay for finding ways to help women access abortion services! Abortion funds ROCK!

:Y:  Love the slogan. 

GL with the fundraising.

Just saw it's April 14... I think I should be good for some bowling by then!

I'll email you!

This is the only time I have ever and probably will ever wish I lived in TX. I want to join the team. I really suck at bowling though, so even if I lived in TX, you might not want me.

Well, there are events nationally. And I love bad bowlers because I am unnaturally (for me) competitive when it comes to bowling and bad bowlers make me look better

This!

Also, do a search for your local abortion fund - they would absolutely LOVE to have any form of donation you can give them - even your time if you don't have money.

I recently attended an event for the DC Abortion Fund and was absolutely blown away by the women who volunteer their time there, and by the generosity of event goers.

I just saw that it was national. I'm going to check and see if there is something going on locally.

I've done this the last couple years. :-)

TX needs the $$$ probably most of any state though.

You'd be hard pressed to find a fund that couldn't really use your money.   There is need for funding everywhere.   That said, the TEA fund does make the best bowl-a-thon shirts.

oh man. I hate stuff like this. Just send someone for my check. Sorry, I'm old, I have money, I wear my own shoes.

I'm not sure you're going to get anyone to come pick up a check , but you can donate directly to NYAAF here www.nycharities.org/donate/c_donate.asp?CharityCode=3395.
