This link takes you to the page where Catholic college promotes abortion

Some of our members are asking to see the actual page on the website of Catholic Alverno College that promotes abortion to the students.

See the links here: http://depts.alverno.edu/rcwg/resources.html

For example, the link to the Center for Reproductive Rights channels students to a web site that promotes “legal, safe, and affordable contraception and abortion.”

The Women’s Medical Fund, Inc. mentions how they provide “direct financial aid to Wisconsin women who are seeking to terminate an unwanted pregnancy… Over 99.5% of all donations go to directly fund poor women's abortions,” their web site states.

Founded by the School Sisters of Saint Francis in 1887, Alverno College has 2,815 students. However, links that articulate Catholic teaching against abortion could not be found anywhere on the resource page where students are introduced to several abortion advocacy groups.

“It’s scandalous for a Catholic college to have any links with abortion advocacy groups or to present them as legitimate resources for students,” said TFP Student Action director John Ritchie.  “Groups that deliberately favor the sin of abortion are not resources, but a death sources.”

Committed to defend moral values on college campuses, TFP Student Action has launched an e-protest addressed to the president of Alverno College located in Wisconsin, Mrs. Mary Meehan, PhD, politely urging her to remove links to pro-abortion groups. 

Everyone is invited to join this peaceful protest.

Rosemont College and the University of Detroit Mercy both deleted web site links to Planned Parenthood earlier this year after TFP Student Action members initiated peaceful protests.
