Planned Parenthood is our March Share the Plate recipient, chosen by the young adults in our Youth Program. Every year our youth nominate and vote on a recipient for the month of March. Planned Parenthood has many clinics in the Milwaukee area, as well as national offices and international partners.
As stated on their website: “Planned Parenthood delivers vital reproductive health care, sex education, and information to millions of women, men, and young people worldwide. For nearly 100 years, Planned Parenthood has promoted a commonsense approach to women’s health and well-being, based on respect for each individual’s right to make informed, independent decisions about health, sex, and family planning.”
Cash collected in the plate will be shared 50/50 between Planned Parenthood and First Church. To donate only to Planned Parenthood, please write a check directly to the organization, and we will mail it for you. Parents and guardians, please talk with your children how even small donations help.
