Today, the PHC ministers to the whole woman, her children and her family.

Susan G. Koman to Discontinue Grant Programs to Planned Parenthood

The Susan G. Koman Foundation has announced that it will cut ties with Planned Parenthood.
The foundation has publicly tagged the decision to an ongoing congressional investigation, led by Rep. Cliff Stearns, R-Fla., into Planned Parenthood’s alleged use of public funds for abortion. The Hyde Amendment, a rider appended to every federal appropriations bill since 1976, bans doctors from using federal money to perform the procedures.
Komen has recently adopted a rule forbidding it from passing any money to groups under congressional investigation.
