The founder of Auntie Angie’s house and president of the American King Foundation, a 501(c)(3), Angela Stanton-King, is no stranger to the feeling of desperation mixed with hope during a pregnancy.
She is known worldwide for serving time in prison with an unplanned pregnancy. Although facing hardship she chose Life and gave birth to her child while chained to a bed with a sheriff watching. After spending years serving her community under the watchful eye of her godmother, Evangelist Alveda King, the niece of the late Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Angela later received a full unconditional pardon from President Donald J. Trump, and he made it illegal to chain incarcerated women during childbirth.
Angela has never forgotten her own experience. Her journey brought her to this moment, a beacon of light and hope for other women with nowhere to turn, chained to their circumstances, undereducated, in poverty, and told abortion is the only answer.
Angela has a history is ministering to woman with an unplanned pregnancy and is now considered godmother to 68 babies who she had a hand in being born and not aborted.
