Way to go Susan G. Komen for the Cure, sure you reinstated funding for Planned Parenthood, again, but your cutting their funding was the best advertisement bit ever!
Planned Parenthood announced on Wednesday that it has received $400,000 from about 6,000 donors since Komen announced it was cutting funding to the organization on Tuesday afternoon. (oh yes, I was one of those donors...)
Planned Parenthood said it also saw a spike in people making appointments for breast examinations Wednesday.
"The silver lining is that more people than ever are aware that Planned Parenthood provides breast exams, and we're seeing more people calling us today to make an appointment," Tait Sye, a spokesperson for Planned Parenthood, told HuffPost. "Politics should not get in the way of women's health, and people respond powerfully when they see politics interfering with women's health."
