Jane Roberts and Lois Abraham

34 Million Friends of UNFPA

Lois Abraham got mad. So did Jane Roberts. They didn't know each other, but both were outraged when President Bush cut $34 million dollars from the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), which provides reproductive healthcare and information in developing countries.

Introduced to each other by UNFPA, Abraham and Roberts today spend up to eight hours a day sending letters and e-mails to friends and women's organizations explaining the consequences of the cuts.
