Having a Komen foundation affiliate give a grant to a PP clinic to conduct breast cancer screenings in a community where there is no other option for such a free screening is a far cry from saying DAII raises " money for a foundation that sponsers Planned Parenthood." |
Yes, I know some women that cannot afford mammograms. They can receive free screenings. I am sure we support other charities that funnel monies elsewhere.
