Surely there are cancer societies that don’t get themselves tangled up with abortion. Those would be more worthy recipients of memorial walk funds and the like. Why has the Komen cause polluted itself like this. With or without the irony that prematurely terminated pregnancies increase the vulnerability of women to getting breast cancers later in life.
A friend who’s a breast cancer survivor participates in the Avon Walk. Below is a link to their grants. I perused several pages, and it SEEMS to be geared to providing funds to cancer centers and local community programs that provide breast cancer patient support/diagnostics services for the poor, etc. I didn’t see any Avon Walk money going to Komen or PP.
