Thursday January 22, 2015 is the 42nd annual March for Life in Washington DC – with the theme: “Every Life is a Gift.”
It’s so encouraging to see so many buses planned to travel from Pennsylvania for the March. To help you know where a bus is leaving nearest you, below is the most comprehensive March for Life bus list for Pennsylvania.
We’ve attempted to provide the location and contact information – our recommendation is to contact the local bus captain for more specific information. Also – as indicated – some buses/vans are planning to attend the Youth Rally that happens the day before.
If you know of a bus not on the list, contact Dan with location and contact information: dbart@pafamily.org
