As hard as we are on companies that don’t do what we like, we need to give Coke a tip of the hat here for doing the right thing.
Sometime this week, Have a Coke and a Smile, for a small victory.

An earlier article said the Coke was contacted and said that they did not fund PP, and that they would contact PP and have the ‘endorsement’ removed because they don’t endorse PP.

I wonder how many other companies will suddenly announce that they don’t donate to PP.

Keep the pressure up!

Here is that thread where COKE denies support of PP.

We Asked Companies About Their Donations to Planned Parenthood. Here’s How They Responded.

"Representatives for Xerox, Coca-Cola and Ford Motor Co. told The Daily Signal that they had been incorrectly listed as donors by Planned Parenthood. They said their companies do not contribute to Planned Parenthood and do not match employee gifts to the organization. All three said they have contacted or will contact Planned Parenthood to be removed from its website. "

Not if they claim Coca Cola WAS providing funds and then stopped. Coca Cola (or Coke) claims they were not.

Very good news; it’s great to know there are people who are entirely grossed out by the actions of Planned Parenthood [even if it’s only by way of a financial sense], not that the killing of the unborn was every anything but demonic. But thank you, Coke...

Daily Signal also referenced 2nd vote for list. They provide an app with lists of companies rated on their support or not of abortion, gay marriage, etc. DS implies the list came from 2nd vote? Keep the calls up! It appears calls are doing some good!

Assuming that’s true. Without seeing the books, it’s hard to tell if Coke actually did donate to PP or continues to do so.

Coca-Cola also supports LGBT in other articles I’ve seen. But we take our wins where we can.

Considering PP took down their whole corporate sponsor page, I wonder how many other companies listed there didn't really fund them either.
