We need $50,000 to continue our work!
Dear Friends:
In this season of giving, please remember the women and babies of China,
who are still enduring conditions that are beyond imagination. At this
moment, there are women in China who have gotten pregnant without a
“birth permit” and are in danger of being dragged away for a forced
abortion, up to the ninth month of pregnancy. Baby girls in China are in
danger of selective abortion and abandonment.
You may have heard that China has “abandoned” its One Child Policy. This is not true.
Regarding the new Two-Child Policy, blind activist Chen Guangcheng
tweeted, “This is nothing to be happy about. First the (Chinese
government) would kill any baby after one. Now they will kill any baby
after two.”

The brutality continues. This October Women’s Rights Without Frontiers
partnered with The Heritage Foundation in co-hosting a powerful event
to expose the truth of China’s One Child Policy. Representative Chris
Smith, blind activist Chen Guangcheng, and Women’s Rights Without
Frontiers President Reggie Littlejohn joined forces to expose the
atrocities of forced abortion and gendercide in China. We talked about women like Feng Jianmei, who was forcibly aborted at 7 months.
China reports that it has 13 million abortions a year. That’s 35,000 a
day, or almost 1500 an hour. The brutality of China’s forced abortion
policy is repeated thousands of times every day.

Meanwhile, China leads the world in the sex-selective abortion of baby girls.
Our Save a Girl campaign is saving the lives of baby girls at risk of
being aborted or abandoned because of son preference in China!
Through our network of on-the-ground fieldworkers, we are
able to reach women who are pregnant with or who have just given birth
to a girl, and are being pressured to abort or abandon her. We offer
these mothers encouragement and a monthly stipend for a year, empowering
them to keep their daughters. We have an overwhelming success rate and
have saved 200 precious babies through this campaign.
This girl is one of 200 babies saved by our “Save a Girl”
Campaign.

We also rescued Zhang Anni, the persecuted daughter of
dissident Zhang Lin. She was called “the youngest prisoner of conscience
in China,” as she was kidnapped out of her elementary school at age 10
and detained overnight. The Chinese government persecuted Anni in an
attempt to silence her heroic father. We raised the visibility of Anni’s
case internationally and then conducted quiet diplomacy to get her out
of China. She is now living with my husband and me and we are raising her as our own daughter.

attendees of the November 2015 China Forum, sponsored by the Victims of
Communism Memorial Foundation.
Women’s Rights Without Frontiers has been called the
“leading voice” in the battle against forced abortion and gendercide in
China. Indeed, I was astonished and humbled to be named one of the “Top
Ten People” of 2013 by Inside the Vatican magazine. We have
testified seven times at the U.S. Congress, three times at the European
Parliament, twice at the British Parliament, and have briefed the
Canadian Parliament, the State Department, the White House, the United
Nations and the Vatican. Our efforts have born fruit. Both the European
Parliament and the United Nations Commission on the Status of Women have
issued statements condemning forced abortion. We are unique in having
the attention of both the left and the right.
Reggie Littlejohn met Pope Francis in October 2013. She was named one of the “Top 10” People of 2013 by Inside the Vatican magazine.
Women’s Rights Without Frontiers needs your support to continue. We need to raise $50,000.00 to continue our work. Please prayerfully consider partnering with us in fighting perhaps the greatest injustice of our age.
The women and babies of China urgently need your help! If you would like to partner with us, please send a check made out to Women’s Rights Without Frontiers to:
