No hurdles can stop any noble cause from helping and serving. Despite a full stop put over the financial help by Susan G. Komen for the Cure regarding Planned Parenthood for breast cancer screenings, Planned Parenthood of Indiana is still capable to serve its purpose and achieve its aim.
Yes, Mr. Jon Mills, PPIN director of marketing and communications has recently confirmed in his statement that PPIN is still receiving big support from many of its individual supporters, who have recently donated approx $9,000 in charity to the organization to serve the noble cause. “The outpouring of support for us was tremendous, at times overwhelming, to be honest”, Mills said.
Komen announced in a statement about the organization’s decision of stopping funding Planned Parenthood but only two days later of Komen’s announcement, a new and fresh statement came from company’s CEO Ms. Nancy Brinker, who clearly said in her statement that the foundation has rescinded its decision and will not be stopping any donation help to the 17 (of the 19) affiliates of Planned Parenthood (as was announced earlier).
Komen is basically a nonprofit organization, which fights against breast cancer and aims to eradicate the illness from its roots. Following the orders from Rep. Cliff Stearns, R-Fla, federal investigations were run over Planned Parenthood, which forced Komen to withdraw its funding to the organization from Dec. 26, 2011.
Soon it was cleared in the reports that Stearns’ committee ran investigation over the organization only to clear if White House officials had information regarding Planned Parenthood’s financial state before its filing for bankruptcy.
Komen is known as the biggest donator for breast cancer screenings. Reports have confirmed that PPIN in the last year only has performed approx 14,000 breast exams and resulted in thousands of mammogram referrals.
