In reply to the discussion: MSNBC announcing that Komen is reversing itself. [View all]fifthoffive
(382 posts)26. Too late
SGKF's attack on Planned Parenthood, and all the women they serve, brought to light the nearly $12 million dollars they stopped giving to universities and other organizations using stem cells in their cancer research.
The fact that SGKF also spends donated money to sue other fund raising organizations using "for the cure" in their name or advertising is repugnant.
I hope people will find worthy organizations to send their money to and drop SGKF from their charity lists.
