Abortion Opponents Condemn Gift Certificates from Planned Parenthood
Planned Parenthood, the largest provider of abortions in the United States, is under scrutiny for handing out gift certificates for its services.
Indiana’s Planned Parenthood, along with its network of 35 clinics across the state, announced it is offering holiday vouchers. The vouchers can be redeemed for basic health care services “or the recipient’s choice of birth control method,” including abortions. Becky Cockrum, President and CEO of Planned Parenthood of Indiana, is offering the vouchers because many people are uninsured or are putting off health care because of the cost.
Abortion opponents said Planned Parenthood was making a “mockery” of the holiday season. Sister Diane Carollo, director of the Office for Pro-Life Ministry for the Catholic Archdioceses of Indianapolis, stated that the gift certificates were a “horrendous” idea and that “they deserve coal in their stocking, not money for lethal gift certificates.”
Indiana is among a handful of its 99 affiliates that currently offer gift certificates for services, i.e. birth control, breast exams, and abortions.
The realization that more than one million abortions are performed every year, and one abortion is performed every 20 seconds, is staggering. Advocates for Faith and Freedom is committed to preserving the sanctity of life and advancing the pro life cause!
