Walk for Life West Coast
in San Francisco.

8th Annual Walk for Life will be held on
January 21, 2012 at Civic Center Plaza

NOTE NEW LOCATION AND ROUTE!

Due to a scheduling conflict, the Walk for Life will be unable to follow its familiar route from Justin Herman Plaza and along San Francisco’s waterfront to Marina Green. Instead, we will be gathering at Civic Center Plaza at 11:00 am for the Info Fair to be followed by the rally at 12:30 pm. At 1:30 we will start walking down Market Street to Justin Herman Plaza.

We are excited about this new opportunity and believe that this new venue will give us the chance to grow our numbers. More information to come so please sign up for our email blasts to keep informed of these important changes.

HOTEL UPDATE: We have contracted for a special rate of $109/night (plus taxes) with the San Francisco Marriott Fisherman’s Wharf Hotel. Call the reservation number 800-525-0956 and request the “Walk for Life Room Block”.

We walk because abortion in the Black community is a form of genocide, it is the Darfur of America. We walk because abortion in Black America is the civil rights issue of our day. We walk because abortion does violence, both physically and emotionally, to men and women, to their children, and to their families.​
