ABOUT US
Madison County Right to Life was formed in 2003 as a non-denominational, non-profit organization. Since its inception, Madison County Right to Life has worked to increase awareness of the sanctity of life in the Madison County area by:
- publishing an annual signature ad in the Richmond Register and Berea Citizen.
- erecting a billboard on I-75. (see video)
- sending newsletters to our members and local churches.
- placing important pro-life information on our website and Facebook page.
- peacefully praying at our annual Life Chain held every October in Richmond across from the EKU football stadium between the hospital and fire station.
Madison County Right to Life is affiliated with National Right to Life and Kentucky Right to Life. We collaborate with Central Kentucky Right to Life in Lexington to spread the message of life with our billboard on I-75.
Madison County Right to Life carries out its lifesaving mission by promoting respect for the worth and dignity of every individual human being, born or unborn.
We work to achieve our mission through education, legislation, and political action. Our strength comes from our broad base of diverse, dedicated people from all backgrounds, united to focus on one issue, the right to life itself.
