Your Catholic Voice Foundation (YCFV) announced an international campaign to serve the entire Pro Life and Pro Adoption Community. Michael Galloway , one of the founders of the Your Catholic Voice Foundation in 2001, announced the bold new seven point, $1,750,000 2006-2007 campaign on July 1st from Bakersfield, California.
"We determined, after much prayer and reflection, that the current efforts, administered by numerous and various ministries, individuals and organizations, though laudable, are not sufficient to meet the challenge of over 1,000,000 expectant mothers a year currently making the decision to abort a birth and kill a child. Enough is enough . YCVF can help, and it is going to help."
The Babies in the Womb Can Count On Me, campaign, or BCOM has seven critical components:
A Priorities Survey. A nine point priorities survey is being made available to seek the collective mindset of the Pro Life, Pro Adoption Community. The Survey provides eight priorities supplemented by a write in alternative. YCVF believes that concerned pro life citizens of every faith and conviction, every political affiliation, and every background will feel compelled to participate in this critical process of establishing priorities for a national and local response. The YCVF survey will accumulate the responses and disseminate the results broadly to all those concerned with this issue.
Creation of a Information Resource Clearinghouse . There are literally thousands of organized and not so organized attempts being made to protect the unborn child, and provide expectant mothers with an alternative to abortion. Some are well known and other resources completely unknown. Some do great work, but are under-funded. YCVF has committed $1,000,000 to the establishment of a Web based information clearinghouse that will seek to list every legitimate resource available in each community to serve the needs of the expectant mother. It is a vital and immediate need that must be done and we believe that 10,000 families will commit to give $100 to see it completed.
Creation of a Curriculum Alternative to that offered by the "Pro-Choice" Agenda. The "Pro-Choice" Movement has created a curriculum encouraging sexual behavior that is long on technique, and short on authentic love and a Moral code. Creating a curriculum based on common moral values that would be accepted in the public school environment and able to be funded with public monies is a critical need. YCVF has committed $250,000 to Phase One of this educational imperative.
Adoption is an Option . YCVF will promote a national website where prospective adoptive parents can be introduced to expectant mothers and fathers, in order to help them to determine that their children should be entrusted to another's loving stewardship. The site will serve the entire community, providing counselors with ready resources to share with expectant moms. YCVF has committed the first $50,000 to the promotion of the Adopt a Match.com site.
See the Baby. Save the Baby . A new technology now allows a sonogram to be created in a four dimensional moving picture. The Baby's 4D-DVD can be made for approximately $250 per copy, and provides the expectant mother a "home movie" of the child growing in her womb. YCVF desires to make available to expectant mothers everywhere the opportunity to have this Movie created. It is a great tool in the hands of those making a life and death decision. YCVF anticipates raising funds for thousands of these 4D-DVDs.
The Pro-Life Mission and Message Intervention Model: A New Approach. Despite multiplied millions of dollars raised and spent, and the tireless work of thousands of volunteers and professionals, at the end of this year over a million abortions will occur. This must stop. The opposition has a 25 year business plan, will spend in excess of $800,000,000, this year, and has a "take no prisoners" attitude. YCVF is launching a Pro-Life Mission and Message Intervention Model that incorporates the very best of all current offerings, augments the offerings as necessary with new and vital offerings, will test and documents the model's success, and then share the results with the entire Pro Life community. This "business model" approach to the resolution of a spiritual/moral/ societal problem is a unique approach that combines accountability with mission objectives, standardization with excellence, and financial resources with measurable results. YCVF has committed $500,000 to the creation, testing, and perfection of this Pro Life Mission and Message Intervention Model , and anticipates seeking the advice, counsel and support of hundreds of experienced business and ministry professionals.
YCVF is in the fight - To stay. We have committed our resources, our people, our funds and our hearts to this great cause and these seven priorities.
