Third Box is a pregnancy clinic committed to providing time, space, and support for a woman in an unintended pregnancy as she makes her choice.
History
Established in 2014.
Third Box is a non-profit 501©(3) social franchise organization that exists to serve women with unintended pregnancies who are unsure of what to do. Third Box is a space apart from ideology and politics, focusing solely on the needs of the unsure woman. There are approximately 2.7 million women each year in the United States who find themselves in unintended pregnancies; 25% of the women are unsure of what to do. Third Box provides free immediate medical care and professional counseling through licensed clinicians and master degreed interns. While there are multiple destinations for the decided woman, Third Box is the only organization solely focused on meeting the needs of the unsure woman in America. Third Box believes in loving their neighbors as themselves and is committed to providing every unsure woman in an unintended pregnancy the time, space and support she deserves to make her own decision, based on her beliefs and values.

Manager
President and Chief Executive Officer — Shari Plunkett
30 years of non-profit leadership, fundraising, board development, strategic planning, team building, financial management and executive recruitment. Metrics focused, data driven, strong communicator, results oriented.
Both Fred and Shari were part of our predecessor organization. Learning from our 30 years of experience in serving women in unintended pregnancies, coupled with the findings of groundbreaking national research on this population of women, we transcended the culture war and have built a new organization called Third Box Pregnancy Clinics, Inc. which meets the pressing needs of women in unintended pregnancies who are unsure of what to do. This is a movement with no politics and no expectations. Women are provided time, space and support to decide and offered emotional support in the critical months following their decision, no matter what choice she makes.
