Sarah Palin: The Gift that Keeps on Giving
By now probably everyone in the greater Planned Parenthood family knows that a viral e-mail campaign was started a couple of weeks ago, suggesting that folks make a contribution to Planned Parenthood Federation of America in the name of Sarah Palin, and sending them to www.plannedparenthood.org to do so — and they did.
By last Friday, more than $1,000,000 had been donated. More than 38,000 folks made a contribution to Planned Parenthood in the name of Sarah Palin. The good news is that, because the contributions came in online, all the money is shared with PPFA affiliates, so this viral campaign will have the affect of benefiting virtually every affiliate in the country — PPFA has had contributions from every single state! This morning PPFA began shipping the acknowledgment cards — 8,000 cards were boxed up and sent out just today, and all week PPFA will be sending more.
And it doesn’t stop there — after hearing that her song, “Independence Day,” sung by Martina McBride, was used to introduce Sarah Palin at a rally, singer/songwriter Gretchen Peters took matters into her own hands. Gretchen will be joining all those who have so far responded to the viral e-mail by donating her royalties from “Independence Day” to Planned Parenthood.
