A Caring Pregnancy Resource Center of Northeast Colorado prepares to host several annual fundraising banquets from 6-8:30 p.m. on four consecutive evenings with four locations including Logan, Phillips, Yuma and Morgan counties.

This year’s banquet theme “Planting Seeds of Growth” features speaker Amy Ford, Co-founder and president of Embrace Grace ministries, an international non-profit that has trained and equipped over 800 churches in all 50 states and multiple countries to open their doors and hearts to women with unexpected pregnancies.

“This is our year to grow,” says Roberta Bigalk, Executive Director of A Caring Pregnancy Resource Center of Northeast Colorado. “We’re helping more individuals facing pregnancy than ever before with information, support and resources. Abortion is not the only answer. Women facing an unplanned pregnancy need our support to make the decision that is right for them, and we want to be there for them, no matter what decision they make! Having served well over 300 women this past year shows us how valuable our organization is to the communities we serve in Northeastern Colorado.”

The following is a complete list of banquet time and dates in the Northeast Colorado area: Friday, Jan. 27, Sterling Trinity Lutheran gymnasium; Saturday, Jan. 28, Phillips County Event Center; Sunday, Jan. 29, Yuma First Church of the Nazarene; and Monday, Jan. 30, Morgan County Event Center.

“We want our centers open five days a week and utilize our ultrasound mobile unit daily! All of this takes money. Helping those who need us is our primary focus and we need the help of those in the community who care. It’s our mission to be a safe haven of hope,” Bigalk said.

A Caring Pregnancy Resource Center is a 501 (c)3 non-profit with five locations in Yuma, Wray, Sterling, Holyoke and Brush providing no-cost and confidential pregnancy confirmation, STD Testing, ultrasounds, lending closets and support services throughout Northeast Colorado.

All proceeds from fundraising efforts go directly to helping young mothers, students, babies and families in Northeast Colorado. For more information about services or to reserve seating, you may call the Pregnancy Center at (970) 842-4324 or visit our website: neco-cpc.org/tickets.
