EMA Fund supporters around the metro area POOLED their resources on May 6, and raised over $22,000!

The EMA Fund was one of 18 abortion Funds sponsoring local bowl-a-thons in 20 different cities, as far ranging as Tulsa, OK, Denton, TX, Fargo, ND, and Eugene, OR.  More than 900 people have registered to take part in these bowl-a-thons nationwide.

The EMA Fund was the only group to hold their event at a pool hall because we couldn’t find a bowling alley to host us. (Very sad)  But we weren’t about to give up. So instead, we “pooled our resources” in a stimulating night of billiards! And amazing it was! Just check out the photos below.

 

We’d like to extend a HUGE thanks to those who raised money, donated and participated in the event. We couldn’t have done it without you. We’d also like to thank Flat Top Johnny’s for being such an awesome host and Closed Circle Photo for taking such stellar pictures.

Thank you everyone!
