“The basic freedom of the world is woman’s freedom… No woman can call herself free until she can choose consciously whether she will or will not be a mother.” - Margaret Sanger, founder of Planned Parenthood and the American birth control movement
It’s amazing that these words still resonate so strongly, more than half a century later. At Planned Parenthood of Northern New England (PPNNE), we rely heavily on our donors’ shared commitment to this ideal so that we can provide excellent health care, education, and advocacy programs and ensure this basic freedom for our patients and neighbors.
The Sanger Society is a newly formed giving circle recognizing those who make gifts of $1,000 or more to PPNNE annually and offers donors the opportunity to get up to the minute and exclusive information about PPNNE’s work. Sanger Society members will receive unique opportunities to hear directly from PPNNE’s leaders about our latest news and activities and, if you choose, special recognition in our Annual Report.
Specifically, Sanger Society members will receive:
- An invitation to Supporter Briefing Calls each year – these calls are led by senior leaders within Planned Parenthood of Northern New England. You will be briefed on timely and pressing issues and then given time to ask questions or share ideas directly with Planned Parenthood’s leadership.
- Regular e-mail updates designed to provide Sanger Society members with unfolding PPNNE developments, issues, and successes… well ahead of PPNNE’s newsletter publication and distribution.
- Invitations to events with PPNNE’s senior leadership, and notable guests and supporters – especially our friends in state and local legislatures.
- Specific recognition in PPNNE’s Annual Report.
Please consider making this important commitment to PPNNE, and join our extraordinary group of more than 300 Sanger Society members. Together, we can ensure people in Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont will have access to reproductive health care, a right to privacy and personal decisions, and opportunities to educate our children with honest and factual information about their sexual health.
If you have questions about PPNNE's Sanger Society, or would like to make a gift, please don't hesitate to contact us at 1-800-287-8188 ext 9704 or at supportus@ppnne.org.
