Volunteers needed: Fourth of July Parade

For the first time in over a decade, there will be a pro-life entry in the Bloomington Fourth of July Parade! We have pro-life signs and a banner, but we need people to walk. Let's show the city of Bloomington that there are many people who want to spread the pro-life message.

The staging area will be at one of three parking lots near the Sample Gates at Kirkwood and Indiana. If we find out where we will be before the parade, we will post that information. Otherwise, volunteers will need to ask where to go. We will provide a cell phone number to volunteers looking for us.

Volunteers need to be at the staging area by 9:00 a.m.

At these young and vulnerable ages, sometimes as young as 12 years old, it is likely that these pregnancies did not occur as a result of legal, consensual activity. It is the duty of the DCS and law enforcement to examine the circumstances behind each case to determine what, if any, action should be take
