Christian Scouting-Alternative Affirms Pro-Life Stance
Members from American Heritage Girls (AHG) Troops representing more than 40,000 AHG members globally will gather with thousands of others to demonstrate the rights of the unborn at the Nation’s Capital on January 22 for the 2016 March for Life.
Prior to the march, AHG will also join the Life is Very Good Rally sponsored by the Catholic Diocese of Arlington in Virginia, further keeping in line with the AHG vision of developing young women that embrace Christian values and family involvement.
AHG also expands the organization’s commitment to pro-life by serving as a sponsor and exhibitor during the two-day event hosted by the March for Life Education and Defense Fund.
“The American Heritage Girls believes each person is created in the image of God. As an organization based on love for God, AHG values life from conception to natural death,” says AHG Founder and Executive Director, Patti Garibay.
In 2014, the faith-based character development program launched its Respect Life Patch. The Patch is to be worn on the girl’s uniform. It is the fastest selling Patch in AHG’s 20-year history. One way to earn the Respect Life Patch is to participate in an event that brings attention to honoring life.
Founded in 1995 in Cincinnati, Ohio, AHG is a faith-based character development program dedicated to the mission of building women of integrity through service to God, family, community and country.
