Planned Parenthood shares same PR firm with Ford Foundation, SEIU
Planned Parenthood’s president, Cecile Richards, joined the Ford Foundation’s Board of Trustees in May of 2010, which has given her influence over financial decisions and charitable contributions the Foundation makes. When Richards joined forces with the Ford Foundation, Planned Parenthood Federation of America saw its contributions from the Foundation more than double in a single year.
Now, former Planned Parenthood national media director and spokeswoman Diane Quest has been named senior account director at Camino Public Relations, which is also the public relations firm for other groups with strong advocacy for abortion including the Ford Foundation and SEIU. Last year, the Ford Foundation gave $300,000 to the pro-abortion group Catholics for Choice, which advocates for changes in Catholic teaching on abortion and human life.
Dear Reader,
Every day in America, more than 2,800 preborn babies lose their lives to abortion.
That number should break our hearts and move us to action.
Ending this tragedy requires daily commitment from people like you who refuse to stay silent.
Millions read Live Action News each month — imagine the impact if each of us took a stand for life 365 days a year.
Right now, we’re urgently seeking 500 new Life Defenders (monthly donors) to join us before the end of October. And thanks to a generous $250,000 matching grant, your first monthly gift will be DOUBLED to help save lives and build a culture that protects the preborn.
Will you become one of the 500 today? Click here now to become a Live Action Life Defender and have your first gift doubled.
Together, we can end abortion and create a future where every child is cherished and every mother is supported.
The close relationship between Planned Parenthood and the Ford Foundation has already yielded increased funding for the abortion giant and could even grow further. The Ford Foundation’s legacy of helping the needy risks permanent tainting as they support the industry that thrives off terminating unborn children.
