New boycott list targets Planned Parenthood supporters
EWTN News ^ | 9/13/2011

Monitors of corporate donors to Planned Parenthood have released the latest edition of their boycott list. They say its boycott has helped cost the United States’ largest abortion provider $40 million. “As a direct result of the commitment, action and prayers of pro-family people, at least 281 corporations have stopped funding Planned Parenthood,” said Kenneth C. Garvey, Life Decisions International communications director. “This should serve as a testament to those who think it impossible to change corporate behavior.” New boycott targets include Mesa Air Group and Trinity Investments.

Help drain the lifeblood from the baby-killing monster known as Planned Parenthood.

Organization Watch

Find out which organizations and institutions are on record in support of federal funding of embryonic stem cell research. You may also learn which groups supported reauthorization of Title X, the U.S. Government's failed birth control program, and which supported abortion-on-demand in the Webster case decided by the Supreme Court.

The Boycott List (see above) includes a section called Dishonorable Mention, which lists seemingly innocuous nonprofit organizations that are involved with Planned Parenthood or otherwise active in the Culture of Death. Among the groups included are Outward Bound West, American Automobile Association (AAA), Kaiser Permanente, Fraternal Order of Elks, Dr. Phil Foundation, Lions Clubs, American Cancer Society, Easter Seals, Boys & Girls Clubs, Ronald McDonald House CharitiesCamp Fire, Girls Inc., Girl Scouts, Kiwanis Clubs, March of Dimes, Red Cross, Muscular Dystrophy Association, Rotary Clubs, Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation, The Salvation Army, YWCAAmerica Gives Back (formerly [American] Idol Gives Back), YMCA, American Association of Retired Persons (AARP), American Diabetes Association. Involvement ranges from donating funds to pro-abortion groups (or allowing affiliates to do so), supporting anti-life causes, allowing pro-abortion groups access to membership, adopting an official pro-abortion policy position, and so forth

If people knew about some of the other things that Planned Parenthood does, it would cause even more alarm.

This list of supposedly charitable organizations send chills down my spine. When they ask me to buy Girl Scout cookies, I will tell them that I can’t because their organiztion supports abortion and Planned Parenthood.

I’m all for a list of Planned Parenthood supporters to avoid doing business with and want such a list to be accurate and trusted.

I hope this one will show the specific funding or support acts rather than a mere opaque up/down vote. As their warning on their own page says, we should be wary of ‘criteria’ that ‘varies widely.’ We don’t know what criteria was used until it tells us an gives us the details.

I would love to see the list of the 281 corps that have stopped supporting planned parenthood.

That list of non profits is depressing, because a whole bunch of those are some of the most reputable orgs around in my opinion.
