So your beef is with the 3% of the services they provide, abortion. What about the other 97% of services they provide?
Seems like it.

Thrive has been going to schools teaching abstinence & birth control. Thrive has out competed/performed Planned Parenthood. Thrive has shut down all but 1 abortion clinic in the state of Missouri. Competition from Thrive will soon make Missouri the first abortion clinic free state in the country. Thrive has brought Missouri's abortion below the amount before Roe vs Wade. Planned Parenthood is not for helping mothers health, education or become good parents, they plan abortions. Thrive is effective & does not take tax payer money. Planned Parenthood failed & sucks the tax payers dry.

Missouri moms don't get abortions once Thrive shows them the truth. Planned Parenthood bills for & performs ultrasound on each mother before doing an abortion, but they will not show the mother the ultrasound. Thrive shows the mother full color high resolution ultrasound of their baby on a big screen auditioning for their life. Thrive helps & tracks these mothers after that. These moms do not go elsewhere for abortion. They have their children & care for them better than most. Because Thrive provides mothers healthcare, educates parents & educates teens before they become pregnant. Missouri's abortion rate is now lower than before Roe vs Wade 1973. Missouri had over 10,000 abortions in 1974, in 2012 they only had 6,881. Planned Parenthood has not reduced the abortion rate by nearly that amount for rest of the country.

Missouri only had 6,881 in 2012!

Nice chart, but you are aware that Missouri isn't a country with closed borders, it is a state and if you close all the abortion clinics people either have illegal abortions or go to the states that it is legal in.

Of course they'll go to backstreet butchers. People have been having abortions from the time they figured out where babies came from. THRIVE isn't going to stop it.

There is nothing more repugnant to me than an organization that appears as if they offer abortion services, or even legitimate medical services, then reel in women and bombard them with misinformation and evangelical mumbo jumbo. It's immoral, and anyone who supports this type of nonsense should be ashamed of themselves.

It's time for me to make another donation to my local Planned Parenthood.

Thanks to KrazeeKrewe for the reminder.

Nowhere on their pregnancy services page do they claim they offer abortion services, only abortion information and pregnancy options.

So trying to save lives of the unborn is immoral?
