For many years Cambridge Right to Life has designated the month of May as “Respect Life Month”. Although our mandate is respect for “all life” at “all” times we choose the month of May to highlight a number of special events that would normally take place such as; our Coffee and Dessert Evening, Mini Life Chains and participation in the National March for Life in Ottawa.
