Actress Shari Rigby, who starred in the movie, October Baby, will speak about her abortion and its profound effects on her life at the 36th Annual Foundation for Life Banquet & Auction, to benefit the Maternal Assistance Program.

The event will be held at the Marriott Town Square Hotel in Sugar Land on Saturday, November 10.
