Welcome to the THIRD Annual National Abortion Access Bowl-a-Thon!
Abortion funds from across the country are raising money to make reproductive rights a reality for women who can't afford to pay for an abortionand we want you to join us! Check out some of the pictures from LAST YEAR'S Bowl-a-Thon!

 
What is a Bowl-a-Thon? Heck, what’s an abortion fund?  
The Bowl-a-Thon is a nationwide series of local events that allow community members (you!) to captain your own bowling team, participate in a kickass national event – and raise money to help women and girls pay for abortions they couldn’t otherwise afford.

Abortion funds are local, grassroots groups that work tirelessly to help low-income and disadvantaged women who want an abortion and do not have enough money to pay for it. Abortion funds help women pay for their abortions, help them buy bus or plane tickets, and even offer a place to stay for those who have to travel for an abortion. Abortion funds make a real difference in women’s lives…and you can join them!

When is the Bowl-a-Thon?
Throughout the month of April. There will be over 25 different bowl-a-thons in communities around the country and in Canada! Find an event in your community, recruit your team, choose a brilliant and punny team name, and start fundraising now!
 
Why participate in the Bowl-a-Thon?  
Because you know that the legal right to abortion is meaningless if you can’t afford to pay for it.
 
Because you’re pissed at the way health care reform has rolled back women’s rights.
 
Because you love being a part of building the movement for social and reproductive justice.
 
Because you’re a crack bowler who wants to strut your stuff.
 
Because you know: friends + abortion rights + rented shoes = the event of a lifetime!

Join us today as we strike down barriers to abortion access
