Support for Abortion Services in North and South Carolina

The Carolina Abortion Fund is a 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization. All charitable contributions to the Carolina Abortion Fund are tax-deductible for income tax purposes. We believe that income should not limit a person's ability to make reproductive decisions. IF YOU WANT AN ABORTION, WE’RE HERE TO SUPPORT YOU.

How to Request Funding

Do you need support getting an abortion in North or South Carolina? We may be able to help. Carolina Abortion Fund operates a secure & confidential phone line to help callers figure out the financial and logistic aspects of getting an abortion. We’ll talk with you about the kinds of support you are looking for and what your options are. Our goal is to help you feel confident, informed, and supported before, during, and after your procedure.

To make a funding request, please give us a call at 855-518-4603 and leave one message. Our funding line is open on the the first three Mondays* of the month from 9am-2pm Eastern. If you leave a voicemail outside of our open hours, you will likely not receive a call back due to the high call volume we receive and our limited budget. We prioritize calls based on the appointment date. Please call the Monday before your appointment date. If your appointment is during the last week of the month you can leave us a message on the 3rd Monday. *If Monday is a holiday, we will open the helpline the next day.

Please note:

• You will need to have a scheduled appointment to receive funding.
• We fund callers who either live in North or South Carolina and/or have an appointment in North or South Carolina.
• We do not fund every clinic in NC or SC.

Important Information Regarding Calls

Please note that we are experiencing a high volume of calls. We will return your call the week of your appointment while our lines is open. We normally send 3-5 emails a month.

We understand how stressful it can be to wait for a call back and we appreciate your patience. We always call from a blocked number. We typically receive over 100 funding requests a week and operate with a small staff- for this reason, you may not hear back from us the same day you leave us a message. Please also indicate if we can leave a voicemail on your line. We make multiple attempts to reach callers, but call from a blocked number and will only leave a message with our direct extension if you explicitly tell us to.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Who does CAF fund?

CAF funds residents of North and South Carolina as well as people coming to the Carolinas for their abortion care. We offer compassionate and honest care regardless of a caller's gender identity, financial reality, etc. We do not have any income requirements to receive funding.

Where can I go to get an abortion?

We work with independent providers and Planned Parenthood locations in-state, as well as some out-of-state providers who offer care past 20 weeks gestation. Learn more about finding a provider on our Abortion FAQ page.

Will CAF cover the entire cost my procedure?

Unfortunately, due to our limited budget and high call volume we are typically not able to cover the entire cost of an abortion. During our conversation with you, we will work together to determine your financial need and connect you with additional funding support if any are available.

How do pledges work?

Pledges are commitments by CAF to pay a portion of your procedure cost. We send our pledge amounts directly to the abortion clinic. Instead of the clinic asking you to pay the amount of your pledge, the clinic will bill us directly for that amount. You will never have to pay us back the pledge.
