This outfit has been calling me for a donation and I suspect they’re a scam.

Anyone familiar with them?

Probably better the the Susan Komen Foundation, who gives millions to Planned Parenthood to help in their work of slaughtering the unborn.

That helps the OP.

Never heard. And quick Google search didn't reveal anything.

If it’s not a scam it’s still stupid branding, obviously everyone is “for the cure of breast cancer”.

Check here for anything you want to give money to. If it doesn't appear here and isn't a local charity you are familiar with, don't give to them. If it less than 3 stars on here, I would generally say do not give to them.

Or you know preventative medical care for women which is the majority of what planned parenthood does.

Other than that Mrs. Lincoln, how did you like the play?

Not to mention you can provide medical care through other avenues. The National Breast Cancer Foundation provides free mammograms and doesn't try to sue other breast cancer charities into oblivion.

My mom and wife died from breast cancer. Susan Komen isn’t getting another dime nor one step from me in their damn cancer walks.

bullshite. They massage numbers, like not counting morning after pill dispensing as abortion, but make no mistake, they’re in the baby killing and body harvesting business.
You’re an idiot if you believe what you posted.

When it comes to breast cancer, I think local is better. Either a cancer treatment facility or an individual who needs immediate help. I had it 5 years ago; I was blessed that I never lost a dime by missing work, was never too sick to drive myself to treatment and didn't have to take care of children. There are many women who have to do all of these things and more. I don't know of anyone that's ever been helped by Komen.

Just glad that it’s not for support of breast cancer “awareness.” I already know what breast cancer is and how women are screened for.

I have a problem with cancer foundations. People have been donating to them for years. How close are they to curing cancer? I think the donors deserve a progress report.

Cancer is a spectrum of diseases, and some forms are now curable thanks to medical research.
