Conservative credit card company Coign donated over $15,000 to a Washington, D.C., based crisis pregnancy center that vandals targeted after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade.
On Thursday, Coign presented the Capitol Hill Pregnancy Center with a check for $15,496.32 after it was chosen by users of its VISA-backed credit card as a charity recipient. The pregnancy center was vandalized in June 2022, with red paint splashed all over the front door and the words “Jane’s Revenge” graffitied on the wall.
Cassie Smedile, the vice president of Coign, told The Daily Wire that the donation was part of the company’s mission to change corporate culture dominated by the Left.
“While liberals try to literally tear down and desecrate businesses and organizations, conservatives lift them up,” she said. “Coign is harnessing the power of raw American commerce to not only force corporations to respect conservatives’ views and values, but to also be a force for good in the process.”
Coign donates portions of its transaction fees to conservative organizations chosen each quarter by cardholders.
Smedile said their donation to Capitol Hill Pregnancy Center “will allow them to dedicate more resources to mom and dads navigating unplanned pregnancies.”

During the check presentation, pregnancy center director Janet Durig said she felt violated after the facility was vandalized. She said that the center had helped patients as young as 11 and 12 with pregnancy tests.
“Where else would she have gone?” she said speaking of the 12-year-old, who was pregnant. “Where did her mother feel safe to bring her? And so I felt violated for all the people that we’ve helped and we continue to help. And the fact that when the public was hating us and misjudging us they’re also hating a woman who chooses to keep her baby and that makes no sense to me.”
Capitol Hill Pregnancy Center is a Christian organization that says it “serves the Gospel of Jesus Christ by providing intervention and abortion alternatives for women and men facing crisis pregnancies.”
Its services, which include pregnancy testing, childbirth education, parenting classes, maternity and baby clothing, are all free.
Washington, D.C., has some of the loosest abortion laws in the country, allowing abortions at any time in the pregnancy for any reason. It is also home to notorious late-term abortionist Cesare Santangelo, who was caught on camera allegedly saying he would let babies die if they survived abortions.
