Runners Get Refund

After Seeing Planned Parenthood Gifts from Susan G. Koman


Jackson, MS (LifeNews.com) October 23 -- Runners in Mississippi who had pledged funds for the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure got their money back after learning that the breast cancer research group has made donations to the Planned Parenthood abortion business and denies the abortion-breast cancer link.

A large group of Mississippi homeschoolers and their parents who frequently run for charitable causes signed up for the Komen race.

But after learning that Komen chapters gave more than $700,000 to Planned Parenthood in one year alone, they backed out and asked for a refund.

The support for the murder of the God's most innocent is really pervasive . Any futher donations I would have made to Susan G. Komen will instead go directly to Pro-life causes.God Bless

In addition to prayer and fasting, this is what it's going to take to root out the abortion demon. Your company gives money to Planned Parenthood? Then you don't get a dime of my money. If you want to lose your business and starve because of your support for PP, knock yourself out. Check out the Boycott List provided by Life Decisions International.

SAVE OURSELVES A LOT OF DETECTIVE WORK TO FIND OUT WHERE OUR DONATION GOES-our 'phone directory probably has a listing for Crisis Pregnancy Center and other known baby-savers. Just drop by or mail your money for the most direct route to "Murder Intervention, Inc."

If ANY non-profit, cause-oriented charity can afford to make gigantic donations to another organization, that is a plain signal that they don't need your money.

If you shop at Stein-Mart, especially their sales, you will want to avoid spending any money in their stores. They had a campaign to give $1.00 of every sale made in a certain time period to Susan B Komen group. I wrote them a letter about the Komen-Planned Parenthood link and told them I would no longer shop at their stores. I checked on the internet and indeed they had this campaign going. We MUST put our money where our mouth is, even if it costs us more in the long run. The babies are worth any and every sacrifice.

Satan is the master of deception! This is a perfect example of the worst form of deception! Compassionate people believe that they are seeking a cure for breast cancer, and the organization is openly supporting a CAUSE of it! This would be like that cancer society giving money to cigarette companies! This is a sad lesson for the children...that hypocrisy and evil exists in the most unlikely of places! We need to spread the word AND complain directly to Komen that their deception will NOT go un-noticed!

Be careful also with those $1 donations for breast cancer research at the grocery store. Because people have caught on that the money goes to the SGK Foundation, they now have the donation going to a group of agencies which SGK is one of them.

why doesn't everyone know that Komen donates to PPh. thought it was common knowledge.

I would give to the American Cancer Society instead of Susan G. Komen. From what I hear, the American Cancer Society helps with breast cancer also, but does not give to such organizations as Planned Parenthood.
