Friends of NCT4AA,
In the past couple of weeks, we’ve hosted our first benefit night in collaboration with Carrboro’s very own, Carrburritos!! With almost $500 raised, that brings our total raised for CAF up to over $1,700! Turnout for the event was great and everyone had a great time enjoying the selection of fresh foods at Carrburritos. I mean, just look at these smiling faces!
In addition, members Caroline Zhou and Maya Vizuete got to visit Bob down at Hillsborough’s premier radio station, WHUP FM 104.7, to talk about the organization, what they do beyond the organization, and why they do it.
At the moment, we’re working on more informative posts such as those regarding judicial technicalities and yesterday, we hosted our second bake sale in Lake Hogan from 2-6pm.
Within the organization, we’re continuing to discuss what events would help engage the community, how to curate our social media impact, and so much more!
Love, NCT4AA

In the last two weeks, we’ve accomplished so much! All our members remain active, motivated, and engaged in the fight to increase abortion access in the Carolinas by fundraising for Carolina Abortion Fund (CAF). We had our first event on Sunday, 7/10: a bake sale!
Here’s a quick recap if you didn’t stop by: It was rainy, but that didn’t discourage us. We sold treats like cookies, lemon bars, cupcakes, and more. We set up a table located by the clubhouse of Lake Hogan Farms in Chapel Hill, NC, and raised over $250 that afternoon!
If you weren’t there to support us but you wanted to, don’t worry! Our next event is coming up: a Carrburritos benefit night, on Saturday, 7/16, all day! 10% of Carrburritos proceeds will be going to CAF! Our members will be there at 7pm that night if you want to meet the faces behind NCT4AA.
There will be many more events to come, so please stay tuned for more!
On top of our events, we continue to hold weekly internal meetings to discuss future plans. We also actively engage on social media and put flyers up in the Chapel Hill-Carrboro area to increase our presence. Here’s to abortion access!
XOXO, NCT4AA

Our first week here at NCT4AA has been a success! Our founder, Caroline, has done an incredible job bringing together upwards of a dozen smart, passionate, and engaged young women. We’ve already brainstormed and scheduled multiple events to foster our later endeavors. Needless to say, this project is still in the early stages, but we are proud of the progress we’ve already made, and eager to see the impact this organization will have in the future!
These were our preliminary logo options! We finally settled on our wonderful logo, which was designed by the lovely Maya Vizuete, who is part of both our Design Team and our Communications Team.
