- Adopt a mom to pray for
  Call your local Pregnancy Resource Center to learn the first name of a mom you can pray for. (Remember- first name only to help ensure the privacy and confidentiality of the mother.)
- Practical Ways to Help Women Facing Unplanned Pregnancy

  Pregnancy centers are non-pofit, and generally can't afford expensive advertising. Flyers hung on bulletin boards in libraries, grocery stores, and office buildings are a great way to spread the word that there is free help available to any young woman with an unplanned pregnancy.
- Share your talents
  Share your talents with mothers at a local maternity home. Offer photo sessions, nail services, painting class, etc. Help them feel special.
- Mentor a Mom
  Mentor a mom. Contact your local Catholic Charities or Pregnancy Resource Center to learn more about mentoring a mother in need.
