Colorado Springs, CO – September 25, 2024 – When organizers of the Democratic National Convention boasted about a Planned Parenthood van providing free abortions last month, the CEO at Save the Storks was saddened, but not surprised. It was a little over a year ago when she learned that the abortion provider copied their state-of-the-art mobile medical clinics, down to the security system. But what the abortion van, where a reported 30 women obtained abortions at the DNC in Chicago, was missing was the ultrasound machine, a “vital tool throughout all stages of pregnancy.” (NIH, J Clin Med, March 2024.)
It is on a Save the Storks Mobile Medical Clinic, also called a “Stork Bus,” where a woman receives maternal healthcare from a licensed medical professional, including a no-cost ultrasound.
“Our national non-profit ministry, Save the Storks, has delivered 103 mobile medical clinics in 32 states across America,” said Diane Ferraro, CEO at Save the Storks. “When a woman steps on board one of these state-of-the-art mobile medical clinics, she is met with a medical team that offers her a pregnancy test, an ultrasound, and STI testing, all at no cost. Our Save the Storks mobile medical clinics bridge the gap between women and the local pregnancy clinic, so they can access quality healthcare no matter where they are.”
Women are being offered up to $7,500 to travel out of state to get an abortion. Over 60% of abortions performed in the United States are done using the abortion pill. The Pivotal Foundation recently committed a $1 billion grant to a fund that will in part pay for abortions. What is being ignored amidst the political narrative and celebrities like Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish, Octavia Spencer, George Clooney, and Oprah Winfrey advocating for pro-abortion candidates is that teenagers and women are buying into the lie that abortion is healthcare.
The tragedy of abortion is two-fold: it takes the life of the baby, and the woman faces physical pain and emotional trauma.

A young woman named Jasmine shares her story of how other people told her not to have her child. It was the Save the Storks Mobile Medical Clinic outside the abortion clinic that provided truth and inspired her to choose life for her baby.
