Recent Dear Sophia Interaction
Dear Sofia,
I’m 15 years old, and about a month ago I found out I was pregnant. I had been seeing Jim only for 3 months when our baby was conceived. For this whole month, Jim and I had been researching ways I could get an abortion, just so my parents wouldn’t find out I was ever pregnant. After coming to your website, and reading the heartbreaking stories, I decided I could never go through with it. (Thank you by the way)
To all the girls that want to get an abortion, just because they are scared to tell their parents, or anyone else- forget it! Your parents will love, guide, and support you through anything and everything. At first, they might be disappointed, but they will come to realize that you need them and they will be there for you. And if your friends are true, they will be right by your side the whole time. Don’t worry about what other people think, they aren’t worth your time. I almost made this huge mistake of abortion, don’t go through with it. You’ve been blessed with a beautiful baby. Don’t give that gift up!
If you could send me more information about what I ‘ll be going through in the next 8 months, that would be great.
Thanks Moa

I have been bawling my eyes out watching the stories and deeply understanding the amazing work you are doing! I can’t see how anyone could oppose what you do for young women! Keep it up, StandUpGirl.com! – John, Sunriver, OR

The moving songs and stories from our guest speaker, Matt Hammitt, who shared his journey of resilience for the life of his child Bowen that with God’s help found the need to protect the unborn, strengthen his family, and faith. He touched every heart in the room, reminding us why we cherish life, family and our lord.
Shared Connections:
The laughter and conversations during opening pre gala event brought us closer as a community united for a meaningful cause. Raffle Baskets were amazing this year.
Impactful Moments:
Your generous contributions helped bring us closer to our $100,000 fundraising goal, making a real difference in so many lives.
We’re beyond grateful for your support and for celebrating life with us.

Shop and Give
Did you know there are easy ways to support StandUpGirl.com Foundation that don’t require you to do anything different during your holiday shopping?
Through community rewards programs and employer matching gifts, your everyday purchases and generosity can go even further — helping women receive life-affirming care, support, local resources and hope during their most needed time.
Here are a few simple ways to get started:
We believe you deserve better coffee! Learn More
The coffee industry is broken. Large distributors sell cheap coffee laden with mold and chemicals, while the farmers who grow it are often paid mere pennies on the dollar.
At Seven Weeks Coffee, we believe in a better way. By sourcing our coffee directly from farmers, we bring the world’s finest specialty coffee straight to your door. Through our sourcing partners, we oversee every step of the process, from planting and harvesting to processing and shipping. This ensures complete transparency and quality.
We personally know the farmers who cultivate the coffee you’ll drink, and through these Direct Trade partnerships, we are revolutionizing the coffee industry. We provide Americans with exceptional coffee and support farmers directly, paying them 300% more than what fair trade requires.
- Organic Farming
- Specialty Grade
- Lab Tested
We believe we are a force for good
With each order placed, you help fund our network of over 1,000 pro-life organizations across the country.
Because of customers all over the country, we have been able to donate over $1,000,000, supporting pro-life organizations in all 50 states, saving an estimated 10,000 unborn lives.
Thank you for helping us surpass this incredible milestone!
