Why donating to ACT is so powerful.
In total ban states like Tennessee, giving to grassroots organizations like ACT is more important than ever. When you donate to ACT, your dollars directly remove financial barriers to safe abortion care for Tennesseans.
Let’s break it down.
The cost of an abortion for a Tennessee resident ranges from $600 to $6000 — and those are just the medical costs.
Then there's more.
How many tanks of gas will it take to get there and back?
Or do you need a flight and a rental car?
What if you need to stay overnight?
What if you need to pay a babysitter for a day or two?
What if you have to take off of work?
The costs of getting an out-of-state abortion add up fast.
Donating to ACT reduces or removes the cost of the procedure, allowing patients to breathe easier.
Raising more funds will let us expand our services to cover additional costs in the future and remove even more barriers.

What our partner clinics say.
"Abortion can be hard and many times our patients are already going through so much. We're so grateful for ACT's help. The way ACT is set up to assist any Tennessean who needs funding for their abortion is hugely helpful, since it means they don't have to make another phone call. ACT trusts us [the clinics] to fund patients directly, so eliminating another step for patients really helps them – they are truly appreciative."
