News from CareNet

Hey everyone. I just wanted to give you an update. I talked to Kay from CareNet. She let me know that the Topeka office is the best place to send our envelopes. There, they will be given a specific code so that they will be able to track how many come in. They are very excited about this campaign and thank everyone who participates. Please pray for the work that they do as you send your envelopes.

First Purple Envelopes Received!

I just talked to Sandy from Heartbeat Int. She informed me that the first envelopes arrived today! Keep sending your envelopes and keep spreading the word! This is truly a grassroots effort. The more each of us does to promote this project, the more we can help Crisis Pregnancy Centers. I thank everyone for your participation and can't wait to hear that many more envelopes have come in.

We can make a difference!

Purple Envelope Project


The Red Envelope Project was a huge success. Over 2 million pro-lifers made their voices heard.
It showed me how powerful this type of campaign could be, and gave me an idea to put our numbers to use.

This is Holy Week and we are celebrating the Resurrection. I think it is the perfect time to support those who are working to support life and saving children from abortion.

CareNet and Heartbeat Int. are wonderful organizations that have Crisis Pregnancy Centers all over the country. I have no affiliation with them, but I have heard nothing but good things about both and the work that they do.
Here's a link to their sites: http://www.care-net.org/aboutus/ and http://www.heartbeatinternational.org/

Let's take advantage of our numbers and send PURPLE envelopes to Care Net or Heartbeat Int. If you can't find a purple envelope, use a WHITE envelope and write "Purple Envelope Project" on the back. Here's the twist. Instead of sending empty envelopes, PUT IN 1 DOLLAR.

Just think how much we can raise for CareNet and Heartbeat Int. if everyone who sent a red envelope to the White House sends them a purple envelope!

Write this message:
Thank you for all that you do to protect life. Life begins at conception. We appreciate the work you do that helps women choose life. God bless you and your work.

This, like the Red Envelope Project, is something that you can do with your family. Please send your envelope and dollar to one or both of these great organizations.

Here's the addresses:
