The Salvation Army supporting Planned Parenthood? Now that is a disappointment. I regret to say that this strikes them off my donation list.

To be fair to the Army, they are listed as cooperating in programs or some such. That could mean a lot of things. For instance, they could be doing a mammogram outreach in poor communities. I don’t know what they are doing, but the article does not accuse them of donating to PP.

I didn’t see a complete list, but here’s a listing taken from the article:

New Boycott targets:
Buffalo Wild Wings (restaurants),
Estée Lauder (cosmetics/personal care products),
Computer Sciences Corporation (information technology), and
United Parcel Service (shipping services).

Companies that continue as subjects of the pro-life boycott include
EBay,
Wells Fargo (including Wachovia),
Nike,
Time Warner (HBO, AOL, etc.),
Bank of America,
Walt Disney,
Johnson & Johnson,
Lost Arrow (Patagonia, etc.),
Chevron, and
Nationwide Insurance, and
Sonic (restaurants), among others.

expanded “Dishonorable Mention” section, charitable groups that are associated with Planned Parenthood either through donations or joint programs.

Those groups include
AARP,
Lions Clubs,
the American Cancer Society,
Camp Fire, Girls Inc.,
Girl Scouts,
Kiwanis Clubs,
the March of Dimes,
the Muscular Dystrophy Association,
Rotary Clubs,
the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation,
the Salvation Army,
the YWCA, and
YMCA, among others.
Whole Foods Market

Strobhar said the boycott campaign is not a publicity stunt “where we make news for a few days and then go away.”
