Reproductive Rights: Purchasing and Packing Gift Bags for Abortion Patients

November 12, 2023 @ 4:30 pm - 6:00 pm

  • This event has passed.

We’re packing 100 Comfort Care Bags for people who have had abortions, in conjunction with Planned Parenthood of IL. Each bag costs $18. Help us meet our goal! You can join in person and/or donate now.

Beth Emet’s Reproductive Rights Task Force is again supporting Planned Parenthood of Illinois packing care bags to people who have had abortions. Our goal is to provide 100 bags. You are invited to donate funds and/or help pack the bags. We’ll also write notes to abortion patients and clinic staff. Inspired by Anya and Teo Siegel-Acevedo’s Gemilut Chasadim Project, we are continuing the work as a full congregation.

How to participate:

  1. Make a donation to help purchase the supplies. Each complete bag costs $18.00, and donations in any amount are greatly appreciated. Please donate by November 6 so that we have time to purchase the supplies.

  2. We invite you and your family to join us at 4:30 pm on Sunday, November 12 to assemble the care packages, write cards to the patients and clinic staff, enjoy some snacks and music. All ages are welcome!
