Pregnancy Resources’ annual fundraising banquet raised a
total of $109,000. More than 300 people attended the event held October
20th at the Hilton Melbourne Rialto Place. Proceeds
benefit this non-profit organization that helps Brevard County women and
families who are experiencing an unexpected pregnancy.
The event included a powerful personal testimony from a
Pregnancy Resources client and informative presentations about the free
programs and services offered as well as the vision for the future. “These
faithful donors will enable our current programs to continue,” explained Linda
Evans, Founder and Board President of Pregnancy Resources. “An unplanned
pregnancy can be a very emotionally charged situation. Our clients
receive compassionate and practical care from trained counselors and medical
staff who help them through one of the most difficult times in their lives.”
“Last year we had nearly 3,000 client visits at the center,”
said Judy Miller, Executive Director of Pregnancy Resources. “Our free services
include medical-grade pregnancy testing, limited obstetrical ultrasounds, peer
counseling, pregnancy and parenting classes, post-abortion support and referral
services.”
Pregnancy Resources provides free services, education and
support in a compassionate environment to women and families facing unexpected
pregnancy. For more information about Pregnancy Resources, call the
center at 321-752-5540 or visit the website at http://getinvolved.melbournepri.com.
Diapers Needed
By attending pregnancy and parenting classes as well as
reading and completing homework, our clients can “earn” things” they need for
their babies, such as diapers. We are in
need of newborn diapers for our clients.
If you could pick up a box of diapers when you shop, it would be a huge
blessing to our clients. Drop them by
the center at 165 N. Babcock Street or contact Deana Green or Judy Miller at
752-5540 for pickup.
