National Institute Of Family And Life Advocates

NIFLA was founded in 1993 to provide professional legal assistance to pro-life pregnancy centers, which now number nearly 3,000 nationwide. These centers exist to provide alternatives to abortion for women considering abortion. NIFLA concentrates its efforts in assisting centers with their day-to-day legal needs and providing assistance to centers to convert their counseling operations into life-affirming medical clinics staffed by professional health care providers. NIFLA promotes the use of ultrasound under the supervision of a licensed physician to inform women in crisis pregnancies of the life within them so that they can make an informed choice regarding their pregnancy. NIFLA provides legal counsel, resources, and training to centers that desire to make such a conversion.

Outreach Uganda

Outreach Uganda is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization headquartered in Colorado and dedicated to helping empower Ugandans, especially women and children, to rise out of poverty. To do this, we work with village groups in Uganda to bring hope and improve lives, especially in the areas of education, women's empowerment, and self-sufficiency through job creation. Initially, our village groups help support themselves and their families through sales of paper beaded jewelry and other craft items. The beaders save money from their bead sales so they can then start own group or individual businesses to supplement their income and eventually we hope it will be their main source of income. Micro-credit loans from their group's internal revolving loan fund provides additional help for the ladies to either start businesses or further expand their existing businesses to a level that will help them rise above poverty. As an organization, we emphasize to both our donors and our clients that we believe in truly empowering those we help. In everything we do, we seek to be a partner with those we serve so that they do not become dependent on us, and so that we do not take away their spirit of wanting to help themselves. We believe that income-generation of the women, and education of the children is the way that families can truly become empowered. But it is essential to take a holistic approach and focus on multiple areas, all of which impact the woman's income-generation potential. For instance, a woman must be relatively healthy to be a successful business owner. Therefore, we must also help a woman address issues of health. For many of our women in northern Uganda, agriculture and the raising of cash crops will be key to their income generation potential. Therefore, agricultural issues, water issues and even land access and rights become important areas to address.
