MUNTINLUPA, PHILIPPINES (Catholic Online) - Planned Parenthood is now faced with federal and state investigations and the probability of losing taxpayer funding. As featured in recent reports, the uproar with Planned Parenthood took off in the wake of two undercover videos that revealed Planned Parenthood officials discussing the sale of baby body parts, to the disappointment and anger of many.
Earlier this week, spokespersons from Coca-Cola, Ford Motor Co. and Xerox contacted a media outlet to say they were erroneously listed as corporate donors to the company and have requested that Planned Parenthood take their names off its website.
A Coca-cola representative confirmed that the company does not donate to Planned Parenthood. A representative from Ford Motor Company also stated, "We are making sure that Ford Motor Company is not listed as a Planned Parenthood contributor on their website. In addition, we do not offer an employee match for charitable contributions."
Xerox claims the same thing and stated it also does not donate in any way. "We checked our files for the last 20 years and have no record of Xerox Corp. contributing to Planned Parenthood," Xerox's representative.
On July 22, Planned Parenthood officially removed Xerox from its list of companies that match donations to the organization. The following morning, Planned Parenthood removed every company name listed as a donor.
Instead of listing companies by name, the site now displays, "Does your employer match charitable contributions? If so, please contact your Human Resources Department for more information about how your gift may be matched."
