I don’t know why, put the Netflix show “House of Cards” comes to mind; the character Claire Underwood (played by Robin Wright), who runs a non-profit.
Baby killing is “Sacred Ground”.
Quote Nancy Pelosi.
When the PC wusses at the NFL have their players were pink this fall, do they really want to publicize their support for the baby killers at Planned Parenthood?
Back when all this was going on, I did a little surfing and tried to see just what SGK was doing.
I went to their site and honestly, the only thing I took away from it was fund raising. I saw no indications of how much, where they were funding anything with respect to breast cancer research. Plenty of stuff about how to donate, but nothing substantive about where those funds went.
I did find various links that gave the salaries of the primary officers - hundreds of thousands of dollars per year for more than a decade back.
SGK claimed they were only funding awareness and testing services at Planned Parenthood, yet at the time of the claim, not one PP location had a mammogram machine.
They spend the majority of their time collecting money with heart tugs and “Three Days” (which they separate out from SGK using threeday.org or similar with nothing said about SGK that I could see on the site, now).
In my opinion, it is just another ripoff scam organization whose sole business is raising cash.
I did the 3day in 2009 and 2011. I signed up for 2012 as soon as the announcement was made that SGK was defunding PP. When they caved, I didn’t do the fund raising but I did some training with my team. I’m walking this morning (6 miles) with them. Some of them have been doing the 3day for 8 years. Something like half of the walks have been canceled for 2014. They are talking about doing the Avon walk next year. Avon has a great web site. You can see where all the money goes. I didn’t see any money going to PP. I would welcome feedback on Avon.
Great information. Thanks for the posting.
Leftists are parasitical and look at charities as cash cows. They weasel in and take over. Collected funds line their pockets and they change the focus from directly helping to lobbying government to fund there agenda. After that they take their place in the Leftist web of dependency.
Look hard before you give.
Fascinating and troubling read. Amazing the power Planned Parenthood has and how ruthless the pro-abort side is. Really makes you appreciate the pro-life organizations. It truly is a war being fought out there.
It’s always interesting when feminist Piranhas wear their self-loathed breasts on their sleeve and then expect everyone to bow down and worship them — and how, despite shaving their heads and wearing pink shirts on Thursday, their Idolatry will never change the NATURE of things - SINGLY OR COLLECTIVELY.
Until the flap with PP, i never heard of Komen Inc.
I did hear “race for the cure” phraseology , but no attribution known.
It indicated at least a correlation which showed that a woman who had had an abortion was more than twice as likely to have breast cancer as one who had not had an abortion.
How Komen could in any way fund Planned Parenthood has been beyond me for a long time.
This decision is really hurting Komen. Where I work, there are various fundraising weeks. Each unit puts together a basket for a silent auction, there are special fun activities, and such. And we usually raise a ton of money. This year, a couple individuals donated items, no unit did a basket, and the silent auction bids equalled less than 50 bucks. This is just one e.xample, but its happening everywhere.
Libs are very bitter vindictive people. Komen is disliked by Libs for leaving and by pro lifers for going back, I see them going to way of the dodo
