A couple’s decision to forego purchasing a home to instead buy a van to help pregnant women in crisis has turned into a life-saving operation that aids women across America.

Joe Baker and his wife founded Save the Storks — a nonprofit in Colorado Springs offering free sonograms, pregnancy tests and resources to women who are considering having abortions.

The organization’s mission aids in informing abortion-vulnerable women about other options so would-be mothers feel they have a choice. The nonprofit also partners with pregnancy resource centers to further reach its goals. Its vans are equipped with state of the art medical equipment and highly qualified medical professionals.

“Shame, anger and fear don’t work,” the organization posits in its video. “If we really want to help, the answer lies in a simple heartbeat.” Simply offering free sonograms to women who were uncertain about whether to abort or not changed the game, Baker explained. Close to 70 percent of women whom Save the Storks has Served said they felt pressure to abort, according to the organization’s website. Four out of five women who got on Stork Buses, however, chose to not have an abortion.

“That bus changed my life,” New Jerseyan Yakemah said. “Not only did I decide to keep my child, I also left feeling empowered to leave the abusive relationship I was in and find a better life for my children.”

WATCH:

In the van’s first year of operation, 2014, 394 mothers chose life instead of aborting their babies as they had planned. Save the Storks now operates 42 buses in 26 different states, thanks to help from a number of donors and a passionate advertising team.

Save the Storks is “personal, compassionate, and affords women real choice,” organization spokeswoman Victoria Robinson told The Daily Caller News Foundation Thursday.

To date, the group has helped over 4,000 pregnant women who are now mothers. The number of lives the organization saves each year is more than doubling.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
