Komen Donations Up 100%

In the wake of this week’s announcement that Susan G. Komen for the
Cure will no longer be awarding grants to Planned Parenthood, the breast cancer
organization’s donations have gone up 100 percent in the last two days. On a
Thursday conference call Nancy Brinker, the founder and CEO of the Komen
Foundation, told reporters that the organization is “singularly focused” on
combating breast cancer, and that the politics of the decision to stop funding
Planned Parenthood has been distracting from their mission.
