  • WHAT IS BEGINNINGS?
    Foundationally, Beginnings is a pregnancy resource center. We offer compassionate support, a non-judgmental listening ear, and we share information about pregnancy options. We empower women facing unexpected pregnancies and we provide free services, evidence-based information, and practical support to women, men, and families. No matter what circumstances bring a client through our door, we give each of them the care and attention they need, and with a holistic and compassionate approach, we help equip them to make informed decisions for themselves and their future.
  • DOES BEGINNINGS PERFORM ABORTIONS?
    Beginnings does not perform abortions, nor do we refer for abortion services. Along with compassion, truth, and hope, we offer our clients pregnancy options education. If they’re seeking an abortion, it's important that they know the facts about it and the ways that it could impact their lives. We offer life-affirming alternatives to abortion and compassionate support, and we don’t benefit financially or otherwise from a client’s decision.
  • WHAT SERVICES DOES BEGINNINGS OFFER?
    Beginnings is a place for women and men, and we offer help in more than just unplanned pregnancy situations. All services are free and confidential, and include pregnancy tests, limited OB ultrasounds, options education and pregnancy decision coaching, pregnancy and parenting classes, maternity and baby items, men’s support services, post abortion support, STD testing and treatment, healthy relationship classes, and sexual risk avoidance education.
  • WHY DOES BEGINNINGS OFFER STD TESTING AND SEXUAL RISK AVOIDANCE EDUCATION?
    Please don't be misled, by offering these services we are not promoting sexual activity to our clients. The reality is that there are many people who are in need of these services, and when they come to Beginnings, it presents us with a great educational opportunity. Our sexual risk avoidance education allows us to share with our clients about how they can make decisions that are best for them physically, emotionally, relationally, and spiritually, and it presents them with the truth that the only “safe sex” is inside of a committed marriage relationship.
  • IS BEGINNINGS A CHRISTIAN ORGANIZATION?
    Yes. At Beginnings we know that it is only through the saving and redeeming power of Jesus Christ that lives are genuinely rescued and changed. As we show the love of God to our clients, they are given the opportunity to hear the Gospel, and through permission-based care, we are able to pray with most clients who walk through our door.
  • IS BEGINNINGS A NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION?
    Yes, Beginnings is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization in the state of Nebraska. While our services are 100% free to our clients, there are still financial responsibilities that need to be met in order to serve them. We are supported through the donations of generous individuals, businesses, churches, and organizations in our community, and all gifts are tax-deductible.

Giving Options

We are a 501-c3 faith-based non-profit in the state of Nebraska. The majority of our funding comes from the financial partnerships of individuals, churches, and businesses in our community. Your gift goes to helping women and couples learn the truth about their options, empowering them to choose life for their children. 


100% of donations are tax-deductible. Would you consider a one-time gift or become a monthly supporter?

Most of our support comes from caring individuals, our local churches, area businesses and organizations. We have several fundraising events and opportunities each year including our annual banquet. Contact us to learn more.
