it is hard to be prolife and not proactive. There are often high profile cases in the media of individuals being sponsored. there must be 10's of thousands of mothers being supported by pro-lifers worldwide. Just look for prolife groups on google.
Pro-life is a term adopted by a variety of movements focusing on bioethics issues. It can be used to indicate opposition to practices such as euthanasia, human cloning, embryonic human stem-cell research and the death penalty, but most commonly (especially in the media and popular discourse) to abortion. The term describes the political and ethical view which maintains that all human beings have the right to life, and that this includes fetuses and embryos.
Many "pro-life" individuals believe that personhood begins at fertilisation rather than at birth or at some point in-between. From that viewpoint, any action which destroys an embryo kills a human being. Any purposeful destruction is considered ethically and morally wrong. Such an act is not considered to be mitigated by any benefits to others through scientific advancement or, in the case of abortion, by ending the hardship of a woman with an unwanted pregnancy, as such benefits come at the expense of the life of what they consider a person. Euthanasia and assisted suicide are also opposed by some pro-life people based on a belief that life is sacred and must be protected even against the wishes of a person who wants to end their own life.
"Pro-life" abortion opponents are frequently in opposition to certain forms of birth control, particularly emergency contraception[2], believing them to be abortifacients. [3] The Catholic Church recognizes this view.
On the issue of abortion, pro-life campaigners are opposed by pro-choice campaigners who argue that the central issue is a completely different set of rights. The pro-choice view does not consider a human fetus to have the full legal rights of a human being, so the issue is instead considered to be the human rights of the pregnant woman to control the fertility of her own body by choosing whether to become pregnant or to carry a pregnancy to term.
The movement in the United States largely began after Roe v. Wade, the 1973 United States Supreme Court decision that held abortion to be a constitutional right.
Attachment to a pro-life position is very often but not exclusively connected to religious beliefs about the sanctity of life (see also Culture of Life). There are secular arguments against abortion but these tend to be a minority viewpoint among the most vocal pro-life campaigners.[

I went to the website of the program mentioned above (carenet), and while they do a lot of things for the pregnant woman, there's nothing for after the birth. (They do have a link for parenting classes, which says "coming soon!", which of course means they don't have any.)
Pro-lifers don't care much about a baby and the mother after the birth.

Its been my impression that professional-lifers do not help unmarried moms in any respect. planned Parenting on the different fingers facilitates households in lots of ideas, earlier, in the time of and after the being pregnant. Now it truly is a staggering company It receives undesirable press because it does recognize abortion as an option (yet does not pontificate it because the purely option the way people make it out to be)

Carenet
and any churches that give assistance for needy families.
Pro-lifers don't donate to Planned Parenthood! They are the abortion capital/capitol.

Very good question. Are you planing on donating? How about planned parenthood?
