Emma Goldman Clinic
Helps With Katrina Relief

The Emma Goldman Clinic will provide $1,000 in Katrina relief targeted to reproductive health care needs of evacuees and others affected by the hurricane. The Clinic is asking the community to match this amount.

Donations collected will go towards helping individuals receive reproductive health care and to rebuild and repair clinics that were damaged by the storm. "Women may have left without their medications, including their contraception. These will need to be replaced. Others may have had an appointment for abortion services, but couldn't get to the clinic, or the clinic was closed. We hope our small efforts in Iowa City can be targeted to these kinds of needs so that women and their families can regain some control back over their lives," stated Karen Kubby, Executive Director of the Emma Goldman Clinic.

Donations forms are available on the Clinic's web site www.emmagoldman.com or can be dropped off or sent to the Clinic at 227 N. Dubuque St., Iowa City, IA 52245. Please be sure to indicate that your donation is part of the community match for the Emma Goldman Clinic's Katrina relief project.
