Americans who want to fight breast cancer without funding the nation’s largest abortion provider were disappointed last week by the Komen foundation’s apparent decision to continue funding Planned Parenthood. Although the Komen foundation may continue funding the nation’s largest abortion provider, the American Cancer Society does not send money to Planned Parenthood.

The American Cancer Society, one of the nation’s largest charities, sent $8,000 to Planned Parenthood five years ago but has not awarded any grants to Planned Parenthood since then. “The program under which the grants were funded expired in 2007, and no further grants have been given since that time,” American Cancer Society spokesman* writes in an email to THE WEEKLY STANDARD.
