Don’t Support Komen Foundation

The Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation is among the world’s largest breast cancer research organizations.  It’s the reason so many Americans know October as Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

The Foundation also has the dirty little non-secret of sending hundreds of thousands of dollars to Planned Parenthood each year.  In reviewing their financials (accessed 4/10/17) – Susan G. Komen is listed as a company that matches gifts to Planned Parenthood, and donated $465,000 to 11 Planned Parenthood chapters.

So what can you do to fund breast cancer research?  Skip around the abortion funding and send your money straight to cancer research unassociated with the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. 

Additionally, tell Susan G. Komen that if it wants your support, it can stop funding Planned Parenthood.  The breast cancer group claims that it doesn’t fund abortion; but every dollar that goes to Planned Parenthood for cancer research or any other reason helps Planned Parenthood end unborn lives.

Since 2012, Susan G. Komen has lost over $100 million in annual revenues from the public each year.  [https://ww5.komen.org/AboutUs/FinancialInformation.html]  The reason is simple: It angered both leftist abortion backers and pro-life advocates when it first stopped, then restarted, its Planned Parenthood partnership, respectively.

I urge you to not support Susan G. Komen until it decides it wants to be a life-saving, not a life-ending, organization.
