David Bereit became an outspoken Pro-Life advocate after Planned Parenthood announced plans to build an abortion clinic in his hometown of Bryan/College Station, Texas in January of 1998.

David helped to start and build the Coalition for Life, a local nonprofit organization that has rallied 60 churches and thousands of community members together for life. David served as Chairman of the Board of the Coalition for Life for three years, tirelessly speaking up for the unborn and raising hundreds of thousands of dollars to fund Pro-Life efforts.

After spending 11 years in professional sales and marketing, David resigned his position in the pharmaceutical industry on July 10, 2001 to devote his full-time energy to saving lives in the Pro-Life movement.

As Executive Director of the Coalition for Life, David has inspired thousands of people through speeches and presentations, and he is a regular media spokesperson for Pro-Life issues in his town and throughout Texas.

David's work gained national attention on the 30th anniversary of Roe v. Wade when his hometown was featured on ABC's "Nightline" as one of two American communities that is shaping the abortion debate.

David's efforts were also featured on the nationally syndicated Dr. Laura radio show when he led the charge that successfully got Planned Parenthood removed from schools in his community.

David is married to his best friend Margaret, and the Bereits have two children: Claire (born in 1998) and Patrick (born in 2002). David and Margaret are also actively involved in Christian marriage and family ministry in the areas of chastity education, relationship instruction, marriage preparation, and marriage enrichment.
