Please consider joining thousands in the Mustard Seed Project
by sending a letter each month to a designated corporation asking them to stop
supporting Planned Parenthood, the world's largest abortion provider.
You can use the letter below or selected parts of the letter
or you can write your own letter. You can save your letter to use again next
month; just change the addressee and date. Or, since new facts about PP are
provided periodically, you may want to update your letter. It doesn't take long.
This month we added the fact that Cecile Richards, PP CEO annual salary is
$590,928
Once in a while there are responses from readers alleging the
sample letter is all lies. There is absolutely no intent to lie about anything
in the letter. If there are any inaccuracies, let me know so they can be
corrected.
We believe the letter to be 100% accurate and want to
maintain that accuracy. Please remember to always keep the tone of your letter
respectful and polite. Your efforts have already resulted in 317 corporations
ceasing support of PP which has cost them over $42.5 million annually. Thank you
for your perseverance.

Sample letter
Mr. Sumner M. Redstone, Chairman & CEONational Amusements Inc.
846 University Ave.
P.O. Box 1908
Norwood, MA 02068
Dear Mr. Redstone,
This letter contains information you should be aware of
regarding your support of Planned Parenthood. According to their annual reports,
PP performs over 327,000 abortions annually and rewards PP facilities that
exceed their quotas for killing preborns so there is an enticement to subtly
pressure women to abort which is reflected in declining adoption referral
statistics. Also, PP does not do mammograms although they have prominently
claimed they do.
There are many other reasons that PP does not need your
support. As a "nonprofit" PP has received billions of taxpayer dollars over its
history. Moreover, PP has been audited in several states, including California,
New Jersey and New York and has been found to have overbilled for its
services.
In 2013, PP settled a billing fraud suit with Texas for 4.3
million dollars. Recently another Texas PP group, PP of North Texas, was caught
engaging in fraud. A new federal
audit found that PP overbilled taxpayers for services, including “family
planning” services for patients who were already sterilized.
The riots in Baltimore have brought a lot of attention to the
fact that so many black families are led by single mothers. Many say the problem
is a lack of fathers to properly raise their children. They repeat over and over
that youngsters not guided and disciplined by fathers turn to violence. But why
are so many fathers missing?
PP’s philosophy preached to young people in schools is to
have sex at any age whenever you want but be sure to use a condom. PP does not
provide any moral guidance or any idea of responsibility, just go have sex.
So with encouragement from PP youngsters will have sex and it
is well known that contraceptives fail youngsters at a very high rate. The
result of PP’s philosophy is that many unmarried young girls become pregnant and
either become ill-equipped single moms or abort their babies to increase PP’s
revenue.
Most single parent families experience many social
pathologies which some 73% of black families have endured for several
generations such as: poverty, school dropouts, sexually transmitted disease,
teen pregnancy, criminal behavior, abuse of women and children and abortion and
its evil effects.
Many single parents lack the resources to give their children
a good education so that many blacks have to take lower paying jobs all their
lives. Thus the social discrimination of aborting blacks for profit by Planned
Parenthood results in lifelong educational and economic discrimination.
Abortion injures women in many ways, even though these
injuries are denied by Planned Parenthood. For example:
• 31% suffer physical health complications.
• 10% suffer immediate, potentially life-threatening
complications.
• 65% are at higher risk of clinical depression following
abortion vs. childbirth.
• 65% suffer symptoms of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.
• Women’s death rates after abortion are 3.5 times higher
than after giving birth.
• Suicide rates are six times higher than among women who
give birth.
• Abortion increases a woman’s risk of future miscarriages by
60%.
• One abortion increases the risk of breast cancer up to 44%;
it is even higher for multiple abortions.
PP of Colorado withdrew its support from and castigated a
legislator who supported a bill to make it a crime to kill a pregnant woman’s
baby she planned to deliver. The bill failed because of PP’s opposition.
The Live Action organization has done investigative reporting
over the last six years using undercover videos of PP supporting child sexual
abuse, racism, deceptive counseling, sex-trafficking, false advertising, fraud
and sex-selection abortions. Recently, Live Action videotaped PP employees
instructing teen girls in dangerous S&M sex. These videos may be viewed on
Live Action’s website. Surely you wouldn’t support these activities or match
employee giving to such organizations.
The American public does not support unlimited abortions.
Some poll findings:
84% say abortion should be illegal in the last three months
of pregnancy. PP objects to banning these abortions, which are very painful to
the baby.
77% support banning sex-selection abortions. PP lobbies to
stop any attempt to ban sex-selection abortions. A sex-selection abortion is
the killing of a baby girl because she is a girl.
78% support notifying a parent of a minor’s abortion. PP
actively lobbies to prevent parents from being notified.
PP claims to have the safety and health of women as a primary
goal. However, Planned Parenthood vehemently opposed a new Michigan law that
requires women to be screened to help prevent coercive abortions, requires
aborted babies to be buried or cremated and abortuaries to be licensed and
inspected.
License/inspection requirements include: (1) patient welfare
should be a number-one priority, (2) The facility should be kept clean and
sanitary, and (3) a qualified physician shall be present and in authority.
No one who considers the safety of women as a priority would
oppose this law, but PP did.
Planned Parenthood in San Jose, California hired abortionist
Timothy Liveright to do abortions. Previously, he did abortions for PP in
Delaware but had to leave there. Delaware medical officials cited Liveright for
numerous problems including: over-sedating patients, performing unnecessary
suction procedures, failing to properly assess patients, failing to properly
administer oxygen, causing at least one perforation during surgery, failing to
properly supervise resident physicians during procedures and failing to act with
due competence and diligence to avoid unnecessary complications, resulting in
patients requiring emergency hospital treatment.
That PP would hire a physician with such a terrible record of
malpractice is proof that revenue is their top priority and women’s safety is
not on their radar.
I presume that you were unaware of Planned Parenthood’s
despicable practices and history. For moral, ethical and financial reasons I
ask you to please refrain from supporting PP.
According to the IRS form 990, the CEO of PP, Cecile
Richards' annual salary is $590,928. PP does not need your support.
If you question this information about PP, your independent
research will provide verification.
Thank you for reading my letter and for considering not
contributing to Planned Parenthood in the future.
Very truly yours,
