For 53 years, South Carolina Republicans have gathered together each year to forget... celebrate our party’s conservative principles, as well as the donors and activists who help promote those principles in our government. While our Party has enjoyed increasing success in the years since our Elephant Club was formed, we always have to remember that no victories are ever perma- nent. They are dependent on our continuing to be faithful to do the fundamen- tals: communicating a clear conservative message that is relevant to voters, identifying and organizing fellow Republicans, and raising the money to make it all possible. As we gather this evening on the anniversary of the tragic terrorists attacks on our homeland in 2001, we’re reminded about what’s at stake in our elections this year - the protection of our families, our homes, our property, our borders and our fundamental values. This year’s election offers us an incredible opportunity to continue to expand our Party.

THURSDAY MARCH 5, 2020 7:00 PM Founder’S Memorial Amphitorium 1700 Wade Hampton Blvd
2020 THURSDAY MARCH 5, 2020 7:00 PM Founder’s Memorial Amphitorium 1700 Wade Hampton Blvd. | Greenville, SC ABBY JOHNSON abbyjohnson.org Abby has always been fiercely determined to help women in need. This desire is what led her to a career with Planned Parenthood, our nation’s largest abortion provider, and caused her to flee the organization, becoming an outspoken advocate for the pro-life movement. Her memoir, Unplanned, was made into the 2019 movie of the same name. Abby travels across the globe sharing her story, educating the public on pro-life issues, advocating for the unborn, and reaching out to abortion clinic staff who still work in the industry. She is the founder of And Then There Were None, a ministry designed to assist abortion clinic workers in transitioning out of the industry. To date, this ministry has helped over 430 workers leave the abortion industry. PiedmontWomensCenter.org/DONATE Program WELCOME AND OPENING PRAYER A LOOK INSIDE PIEDMONT WOMEN’S CENTER KEYNOTE SPEAKER - ABBY JOHNSON CLOSING REMARKS - KELLY ROSS CLOSING PRAYER After the event, join us for cookies and fellowship outside PiedmontW Letter From Kelly It’s only unthinkable… “It’s only unthinkable if you don’t think it.” DABO SWINNEY When I first heard that statement, I chuckled about the funny way that sounded. As with many things Coach Swinney says, they strike me as funny until I take a moment to reflect on them. This simple statement after a hard-fought victory points to the creative and intellectual ability God has shared with all creation (especially those who call Him Father and trust in Him for Salvation).
