47 anti-abortion protestors made their way out to Planned Parenthood in Chapel Hill last week! That means that around 116 antis have come out to harass people who are accessing healthcare at just 2 clinics since September 24th.

We're heading finishing the second week of 40 Days for CAF. For the next 4 weeks, we'll count the anti-abortion protestors outside of clinics in North and South Carolina. Each protester who shows up to harass patients will add to the running total we're raising to help fund abortion services.

We can sigh a breath of relief, but the work continues. Still mad about having your rights challenged into eradication? You can contact your legislators here: p2a.co/4f1aqmg We will be sighing in community this weekend at Columbia Pride! Come get some freebies, signs and merch at our table!

Committee deciding to have time to add amendments before voting out of subcommittee . Not leaving committee at this time!

Once again listening to physicians from out of state asking for a ban.

As we said, South Carolinians do NOT want this bill. These old laws have old friends, and they don't even go here!

Testimony is at recess for now. Head over to our tables and get some freebies! If you're watching from home or work, make sure you have your favorite comfort piece, get your water and snacks!

If you're not from South Carolina, this is what our senators are like.

They're calling terrorizing people on the way to their appointment at a CPC being a "sidewalk counselor" now, btw.

"I'm mostly against groveling for healthcare" said the testifier before addressing the senators directly with a full chest. PROTECT HER. 📢

There was endless testimony about God but we finally got one for calling abortion seekers practitioners of Satanic Rituals. +1 to the testimony: Theocracy has no place in policy!

Of course, the folks bringing the bibles to the statehouse are encouraged by the bill, meanwhile the South Carolinians opposing the bill so far are emphasizing that SB 323 will leave women, children and the state of South Carolina in shambles.

We're here in SC and we're keeping you posted on everything happening SB 323!

JOIN US THIS MORNING AT 9:30AM! We don’t fall in line, we hold it until our hands go numb and then we hold tighter. What we need is abortion access, not abortion criminalization. We need clinics and providers who are trusted to do their job without fear of prosecution or intimidation.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MIFE! 📢🥳🎂 Mifepristone was approved by the FDA more than two decades ago based on its medical safety and effectiveness, and is a common option for ending early pregnancies. Mife's safety is documented in more than 100 peer-reviewed articles,.

For the past eight years, we at Carolina Abortion Fund have run 40 Days for CAF, an opportunity to show up for abortion access and also spotlight and counter the harm that anti-abortion harassers cause to clinics and patients. Protestors are an unfortunate reality for many clinics. (link in bio)

Black August may be coming to an end, but supporting Black community members is a year round practice for us around here. In honor of this, we're spotlighting a few Black-owned businesses and Black artists in the Carolinas. We know and will continue to shout that we keep us safe.

We'll be at Transfer Co. Ballroom in Raleigh on Saturday Sept 6 from 12-5pm for the second edition of Sipsman's Record Fair at Hopscotch!

CAF is gearing up for an eventful fall! We’re looking for a few vendors as part of an event on November 2nd in Raleigh. The event will take place from noon to 6pm and the vendor market runs from 2pm-6pm. Please fill out the application form in our bio to be considered!

Good trouble, fighting the good fight, all the good good good reasons we are here do not erase the pervasive culture of white supremacy nor its impact on our movements. Black August should be spent uplifting Black businesses, Black authors and causes while shifting power through who we support ($$)

We are BACK with another announcement: We are seeking Reproductive Justice advocates who are pro-abortion, pro-choice, pro-autonomy and pro-everywhere to join our community of volunteers, supporters, and advocates to turn the tide in abortion access. There's a part to play for everyone!

"Your choices, your actions, that's what makes you who you are." In light of the new Superman movie out, we'd like to take a minute to share some love with our heroes-- our donors and supporters!

Welp. No better time than now to join the fight. In addition to cost, many of our callers also face obstacles in finding safe, reliable transportation and a compassionate support person to accompany them through their care.

SB 20 anniversary, SC SCOTUS Decision, and now this? This grief, may it be fuel as we join you in calling our legislators *now*. We wrote this before the decision came down, and so we must amend to say Congress is no longer merely considering this bill, but instead it has been passed by US Senate.

Pride weekend, pride season, and a forever practice of fighting for a future to an unpoliced full suite of options that we have endless access to.

Parents deserve their flowers, and so we're returning to our favorite safe haven of the state, HEL'S, along with our friends with the Forsyth County Bail Fund to make sure our community members know they will never be disappeared.

What does it mean to serve Cowboy Cartier, anyway? 👢 We're looking for the flyest cowthey in the courtyard and we're hoping to crown you, so here's our cheat codes! Being an outlaw looks different over the years; the average abortion cowboy probably has four eyes and three drinks on their desk.

It’s time to round up your friends, dust them boots off, and help CAF make some magic happen for reproductive Justice. We’re takin’ it outside with our theme, Carolina’s Most Wanted: Cowboy Cartier! We cannot wait to crown folks as queen Chappel or king Lil Nas X in the costume contest.

Thank you to the pet parents of Billy and Ellerbie for sending in their photos and donating to CAF's Fund A Thon campaign! They'll be receiving their CAF clack fans shortly. We've raised over $17,000 for abortion access so far!

Administration to administration– Black women, femmes, thems and fathers have navigated, shared information and comforted each other through transitions in clinics and hospitals. Together, we remember the wisdom that has allowed us generations of safety in abortions, births, and postpartum.

Happy National Pet Day! Donate $20 or more to our Fund A Thon campaign (link in bio) and send a picture of your pet to [email protected] to enter the drawing to win a CAF clack fan! You have until Monday to send us your best pet pic. We’ll notify the winner on Tuesday!

We are DANCING to the sound of "I don't think there's any real desire in our caucus to hear that particular bill, and so it's not going to be heard in committee," today. Earlier this week, legislators attempted to further restrict abortion access to a near total abortion ban.

Hello, friends! Are you interested in volunteering in the Reproductive Freedom/Bodily Autonomy/Abortion Rights arena, but don't know where to start? We teamed up with @c-a-f.bsky.social and Soda City Abortion Access to help you!

📣🚨Urgent: HB 44 is being heard RIGHT NOW. This bill won’t protect Texans- it’ll criminalize pregnant people and their supporters. Visit the link in our bio to submit a comment NOW: Fix or vote no on HB 44. Read our talking points: bit.ly/hb44-jdp #txlege #AbortionIsHealthcare #StopHB44

Throw down for abortion access! Join us at the alley on Saturday, April 12th in Raleigh. Location details will be provided to registrants closer to the date. Registration closes on Monday, so don't wait!

🤠 WHERE THEM FANS AT?! Cut that bellyachin' because our Annual Gala is BACK and it's our favorite way to fund abortion. Round up your friends, throw on your best cowboy (or cowgirl, or cowthey!) chic, and GET THEM BOOTS ON THE GROUND FOR REPRODUCTIVE JUSTICE.

Southern funds are no strangers to restricted access, we are still in an uphill battle. Our callers are navigating regular life, floods, hurricanes, and bad legislation from state to state in order to access healthcare, travel assistance and childcare.

For us: to see trans folks is to see trans folks, hold trans folks close and love trans folks–full stop. 🫂 We went to write about how particularly dark it is in these times, but remembered how bright queer and trans folk shine especially under pressure.
