Friend — There are very few writers who
have helped more young people grow up and grapple with their
changing bodies and emotions than Judy Blume, the amazing author
of Blubber, Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret,
and Forever. I count myself among her biggest and most
grateful fans — and am so lucky to call her my friend. I'm
honored to relay her message about motherhood to you today.

Dear Friend,
If you are
the daughter whose mom had the guts to give you the answers to
questions you couldn't quite figure out how to ask...
If you are
the son whose mother raised you to love and respect your sisters
and wives and daughters...
If you know a
mother who is struggling to raise strong, independent, and
confident children in the face of unbelievable odds...
...Say thanks. Say thanks this Mother's
Day with a gift that honors her courage by making a donation to
Planned Parenthood in her name. I
guarantee you that she'll be pleased. I know I would be.
I'm a mom,
and I'm also a writer and an activist. Nothing has made me
prouder than seeing my own children — and really, all
young people — grow up to be healthy, educated, and in
charge of their bodies and their lives. That's where Planned
Parenthood comes in. There is no organization that I know of
that supports motherhood and all that it means more than Planned
Parenthood. That's why I'm honoring moms everywhere
with my gift to Planned Parenthood
today.
It's not easy
to be a mother these days. And right now — with more and
more women seeking care from Planned Parenthood health centers
— we need to do all we can to support them. By honoring a
mother in your life, you'll be making a gift to millions of
mothers and families who seek care from Planned Parenthood.
That's a gift any mother will appreciate.
Sincerely,
 Judy Blume on behalf of Planned
Parenthood Federation of America
