SHAWN CARNEY
CO-FOUNDER OF 40 DAYS FOR LIFE & HOST OF 'BEING HUMAN'
Co-Founder of 40 Days for Life, Record-Breaking Fundraiser, Television Personality
Shawn Carney is one of the youngest and most inspirational pro-life speakers in America today.
While still in college, he raised more than $500,000 for a local pro-life advocacy organization and quickly began helping other pregnancy centers and right to life groups raise record amounts of money at fundraising banquets and conferences.
Shortly after graduating from college, at the age of 23, Shawn was named Executive Director of the Coalition for Life where he increased the income of the organization’s annual banquet from $80,000 to $312,000 in just four years.
In 2004, Shawn helped to lead the first-ever 40 Days for Life campaign in College Station, TX. This breakthrough initiative – made up of 40 days of prayer and fasting for an end to abortion, round-the-clock peaceful vigil outside a local abortion center, and grassroots door-to-door outreach – slashed local abortion numbers by 28%.
Beginning in 2007, Shawn helped to expand 40 Days for Life to 240 cities in all 50 American states, four Canadian Provinces, England, Ireland, Brazil, Peru, Australia, and New Zealand. His efforts have helped to mobilize more than 215,000 pro-life volunteers over the last two years.
Shawn is a regular media spokesperson on pro-life issues, and his work has been featured on Fox News, ABC, NBC, and CBS television stations, dozens of newspapers including The New York Times and the Los Angeles Times, and Christian media, including National Catholic Radio, The Christian Post, National Catholic Register, Salem Radio, Relevant Radio, EWTN Radio, and Focus on the Family.
Shawn also serves as executive producer and host of the new pro-life television series, “being HUMAN,” which airs in 128 million homes via the EWTN global television network.
Shawn has traveled across America, inspiring audiences at pregnancy center events, conferences, fundraising banquets, churches, colleges, and high schools. His passion for helping women and the unborn is contagious.
As a speaker and consultant, Shawn has built a proven track record of helping pro-life organizations raise record-breaking amounts at fundraising banquets – whether it is a group’s first or twentieth banquet.
Shawn lives in Texas with his wife, Marilisa, and two daughters, Bridget and Bailey, who are Irish twins (eleven months apart), and a son, Seamus.
What other say...
"It's been a week since the banquet and people are still buzzing about Shawn Carney and how you hit home with everyone!
Last year we had 220 people attending and raised $21,500. This year we had about the same amount of people - 225 actually, and our goal was $22,500.
We surpassed our goal with a 43% increase and raised $32,075!"
Misty Mehrkens
LifeCare Pregnancy Center, Minnesota
"Outstanding! The spread sheets we did that night show that Shawn's appeal struck home! As the numbers still continue to pour in it looks like we're up at least 50% from last year! "
Carol Siedhoff,
Montgomery County Right to Life
"For our first banquet we raised over $65,000 and with only 215 people in
attendance!
Shawn did a wonderful job of bringing the topic of abortion to a level that
people felt they could
make a difference. They loved the frankness of his approach in asking for
funds for our pregnancy
center. Shawn's truth and earnestness refreshingly comes forth with just the
right amount of humor
that kept the mood from getting too heavy. We thank God for bringing Shawn
to us."
Diane Toomer,
St. Joseph Helpers Pregnancy Center, Arkansas
“This was our best banquet in 23 years! We received many comments from attendees stating how much they loved Shawn’s presentation. He was able to come into our banquet and professionally personalize his speech to reach our donors effectively. We would highly recommend him to another organization!”
Gina M. Kennedy, Executive Director
Pregnancy Resource Center of Cambridge
“To hear Shawn talk with such passion and commitment as such a young man, to talk about these issues the way he does I got to tell you, it pumps me up!”
Laura Ingraham, Nationally Syndicated Radio Talk Show Host
Author, Shut Up and Sing
"Shawn’s passion for the pro-life movement and its future is undeniable. We were privileged to have him speak for us at several fundraising events. Through him, we were offered a glimpse into the promising and exciting future leadership of the pro-life movement in America. His faith and powerful presence invigorated our audiences. His remarks motivated our supporters to contribute to us both financially and spiritually.
"It’s not every day that you encounter someone who is so dedicated, well-versed, and at such a young age! Shawn is an asset to our organization, and we will definitely have him speak for us again."
Stacey Kromer, Vice President
Vitae Caring Foundation
Central Region
"Shawn presents the need for pro-life support very well and helped our banquet attendees understand their role in the pro-life movement. Shawn also worked very hard with us in understanding our community and the make up of our donor base so that his presentation would be as impactive as possible. Shawn was a great asset at our banquet event this year and we were very pleased to have him!"
Janna DiGiacomo, Executive Director
Real Choices Pregnancy Care Center
“Since Shawn began speaking at our benefit and giving the financial appeal three years ago, his enthusiasm and sincerity increased our funds by an average of 32% every single year. Shawn’s passion is motivating and crucial in raising funds for the pro-life cause.”
James Olson, George Bush School of Government at Texas A&M University
Author, FAIR PLAY: The Moral Dilemmas of Spying
“Shawn is the best! He is young but wise beyond his years. He is able to relate well to all groups and adjusts his message to the level of the audience. He is funny and sincere. He is knowledgeable about the life issues and able to respond to all questions. When confronted by the opposition, he diffuses their arguments. His arguments are logical and philosophical and indisputable. I highly recommend him to speak at any function!”
Ellen Markham, Executive Director
Dubuque County Right to Life
