State and County Fairs – Nebraska Right to Life

The many county fairs around the state allow our chapters to reach their community with pro-life educational materials and timely alerts on life issues. These are conducted throughout the summer months. Nebraska Right to Life sponsors a double-booth at the Nebraska State Fair every August-September. This 10-day event, held in the Pinnacle Expo Center, reaches thousands of Nebraskans with life-affirming education and support. More than 100 volunteers offer their time and talent to oversee this statewide booth in Grand Island, Nebraska. To become involved, go to the Volunteer page.

"Nebraska Right to Life has been a courageous champion of the sacred dignity of pre-born babies in our state. Their compassionate advocacy has immeasurably strengthened Nebraska’s pro-life culture. Nebraska Right to Life’s dedicated work is helping change hearts, minds and policies so that the basic human right to life is fully respected."

-Governor Pete Ricketts

"We should all be working to protect babies and defend human dignity, and the Nebraskans that make up Nebraska Right to Life do that work every day. Nebraska is a pro-life state; and being pro-life means being pro-women, pro-science, and pro-compassion. And we’re seeing this movement grow thanks to grassroots efforts across our state. Defending lives and loving our neighbors are staples of Nebraskans – and that’s always worth celebrating."

-U.S. Senator Ben Sasse

“I have greatly appreciated Nebraska Right to Life through the years. This is an organization that has been a champion for the protection of human life and the unborn in Nebraska for decades. As a State Senator, I have seen and experienced how the Nebraska Right to Life plays an absolutely vital role in getting pro-life legislation created, debated and passed. I am proud of Nebraska Right to Life and the difference they have made for the lives of unborn Nebraskans for generations. They are a voice for the voiceless!”

-Nebraska Senator Joni Albrecht, District #17

“Nebraska Right to Life has been a cornerstone of our community for nearly 50 years, promoting a culture of life and embodying what I like to call a “community of care.” Their noble efforts protect the preborn, restore legal protections to vulnerable persons, and promote life-affirming legislation for the good of all Nebraskans."
