Our Mission

PROLIFE Across AMERICA is a non-profit, non-political, 501 (c)(3) organization dedicated to changing hearts and saving babies’ lives. We are committed to bringing positive, persuasive messages, offering information and alternatives – including adoption – and post-abortion assistance to those in need. We base our beliefs on Biblical principles and Roman Catholic teaching.

PROLIFE Across AMERICA’s mission since 1989 has been to reach out through billboard, radio, print, and online ads to people who may not be reached in any other way. Our ads create an “Atmosphere of Life” in a “culture of death.”

So often our tender and touching ads are the only visible sign offering hope and help to someone who may be on the brink of an abortion decision.

Share our mission with others by giving them our brochure or DVD (free of charge): click here for an order form!

Current Billboards

Known as the “Billboard People”, our ads are often the only sign of hope and help to those in need. The tender and touching billboard ads educate the public about life before birth and offer a Hotline number for help! Last year, we placed 9,500 Billboards in 42 states, which generated more than 2,800 calls and 300 emails to our Hotline.

Billboards Nationwide

We placed more than 9,500 Billboards in 42 states this year!

HELP SAVE BABIES LIVES

TV Streaming Ads

PROLIFE Across AMERICA also runs TV streaming ads in states like New York, Illinois, Texas and California. These 30-second ads can be seen on streaming networks, such as Sling, Xumo, Tubi, Pluto, Crackle, and others.

Our streaming ads feature images of our Billboards with both a vocal and a printed message. They are targeted to reach thousands of viewers who choose to watch their TV content through network platforms instead of traditional cable or TV channels.

Featured Radio Ads

Our Pro-Life Radio Ads can be heard in several states reaching out to those in need! These positive and persuasive messages demand listeners’ attention and relay important facts:

Health of Mom and Baby

It’s not over

I Want

Baby’s heart beat
