National initiative expands innovative solutions, ensuring every woman can embrace the beauty of motherhood
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — Every woman deserves real choice, not the illusion of one. That’s the conviction driving Save the Storks, a national pro-life organization on a mission to eliminate the obstacles and create equal access to motherhood, dismantling the barriers keeping women from choosing life.
In a culture where millions of women face pressure to see abortion as their only option, Save the Storks is asking a pivotal question: Do all women truly have equal access to motherhood?
Seventy-four percent of women seeking abortions say having a child would interfere with education, work or caregiving responsibilities, according to the Guttmacher Institute. Another 73 percent cite financial strain, while 5.6 million American women live in maternal care deserts — regions with limited or no access to maternity services.
“These numbers represent millions of women who aren’t being offered a real choice,” said Diane Ferraro, chief executive officer of Save the Storks. “If a woman feels forced into abortion because she lacks support, resources, or healthcare access, then our society has failed to empower her. Our mission is to restore that choice and make motherhood a viable and beautiful option for every woman.”
At this year’s March for Life in Washington, D.C., Save the Storks led others under the banner of “Marching for Equal Access to Motherhood℠.” The message was clear: true choice requires support and access — not pressure and isolation. While the abortion industry often promotes “choice,” millions of women say their options are limited by economic hardship, marital status or social expectations.
“No woman should feel she has to give up motherhood because she’s lacking support,” Ferraro said. “At Save the Storks, we help women across America be moms by offering real alternatives and compassionate care where it’s needed most.”
Building a network for life-affirming care
Save the Storks is expanding a four-part strategy to deliver holistic care that meets women physically, emotionally and spiritually:
- Mobile Medical Clinics: The organization’s state-of-the-art clinics travel directly into underserved communities, breaking barriers to prenatal care and life-affirming services.
- National partner program: By strengthening and equipping pregnancy resource centers nationwide, Save the Storks helps local clinics reach a “platinum standard of care,” offering medical excellence and empathy.
- Community partnerships: Collaborations with churches, businesses and nonprofits bridge the gap between women in crisis and the support networks they need to thrive as mothers.
- Digital platform: An online hub connects women to round-the-clock life-affirming resources and practical support, ensuring help is never out of reach.
“Equal Access to MotherhoodSM is the road to real choice,” Ferraro said. “Through our clinics, partners and digital initiatives, we are creating a healthcare model built on compassion, not commerce — one that truly values both mother and child.”
Empowering women for generations
The organization’s work has already helped tens of thousands of women receive free ultrasounds, counseling and prenatal care. By expanding its national network, Save the Storks aims to reach millions more in the coming years. Each clinic visit and community partnership represents a lifeline for a mother facing an impossible choice.
“Our goal is simple,” Ferraro said. “We want every woman to feel empowered in her journey to becoming a mom. By eliminating obstacles and offering equal access to support and care, we’re helping women see that motherhood is not a burden — it’s a beautiful choice.”
For millions of women in maternal care deserts and communities lacking resources, Save the Storks is providing a new kind of safety net — one built on faith, innovation and love.
Save the Storks’ mission is to create a story of hope and empowerment for every woman facing an unplanned pregnancy. This national organization that started in 2012 focuses on four key areas of impact: Elevating women’s healthcare through strategic partnerships with pregnancy centers; Mobile Medical Clinics that bring women’s healthcare directly to where it is most needed; Church and Community partnerships; and the Digital Platform for women, offering 24/7 access with real care and real options.
