The '''March for Life''' is the largest and longest annual gathering in the history of the [[United States]].  '''About 400,000 (and growing) gather annually in [[Washington, D.C.]] in support of life and against [[abortion]]'''.<ref name="March for Life">http://www.marchforlife.org/</ref>  By comparison, the biggest sports events attract attendance of only 100,000-250,000, and the biggest cities can accommodate tourism of only about 200,000 at any particular time.

Founded by the late Miss [[Nellie Gray]], who led it for nearly four decades, ever since, she also set up a non-profit organization by the same name which provides educational workshops typically the day before the [[March]].  Many organizations and groups from across the nation attend the March for Life.  For example, [[Conservapedia]] has led increasing numbers to the March for Life each year beginning in 2009, and led more than a hundred participants on the very cold days of January 24, 2011 and January 23, 2012.
