All proceeds provide vital support for The Northwest Center, the largest pro-life service organization in our nation’s capital. Founded over 25 years ago, The Northwest Center has helped over 35,000 women and children in the Washington, DC area. It operates two complementary programs: a crisis pregnancy center and a maternity home. In 2006, the pregnancy center provided over 3,547 women and children with life-affirming assistance, by providing counseling and material assistance, as well as access to pre-natal care, medical and legal services, educational opportunities, job training, child care and housing. In 2006, the maternity home provided a safe home and comprehensive services to 10 pregnant women and 12 children. The Northwest Center receives no government funding. It is supported solely by the generous support of individuals, churches, and foundations.  It is a 501(c)(3) tax exempt charity.
