Mother's Day fundraising Challenge: Planned Parenthood

A generous Planned Parenthood supporter has issued a Mother's Day Challenge for the critical Stand with the States Campaign: all online donations will be matched -- dollar for dollar, until they reach $50,000 -- until midnight on Mother's Day.

Please rise to the Mother's Day Challenge. Your gift will be effectively doubled and you'll help Planned Parenthood reach their $50,000 goal!

Celebrate motherhood and family by promoting intentional, informed reproduction.

I fully support planned parenthood, however...

As a new mother, I'm not sure how I feel about politicizing this holiday. :(

Well, since *my* mother is the one who is always urging me to support Planned Parenthood, this is part of my celebration of (*sometimes*) doing what she suggests. :)

Yeah, I didn't know specifically. I think pro-lifers abusing this holiday is really horrid. It seems hypocritical to support pro-choicers (and I am definately a pro-choicer!) abusing the holiday. (Then again society is full of hypocrites so maybe I should just join up!)
