And so we started out with writing a check for $4 and now when we give it to our different charities, it's got a couple zeros behind it, and then our second charity is that Odd Fellows Scholarship Fund for sons and daughters of veterans, and that's the one that's located in Davidson.

• Planned Parenthood Said The Claims In The Anti-Abortion Movie, “Unplanned” Were False, And It Promoted Distortions And Incorrect Depictions About Health Care. “If you haven’t seen a commercial for Unplanned, an anti-abortion movie critical of Planned Parenthood, it isn’t for lack of trying on the part of marketers, whose efforts have been consistently rebuffed by TV networks. […] Planned Parenthood issued the following statement about Unplanned, ‘The claims in this film are simply false. Planned Parenthood is proud to provide expert, high-quality health care to our patients, including safe and legal abortion, in a safe and compassionate environment. The movie promotes many falsehoods including most importantly, distortions and incorrect depictions about healthcare.’” [The Hollywood Reporter, 3/29/19]

Crisis Pregnancy Centers Were Run By Anti-Abortion Activists That Engaged In Manipulative Practices That Spread Misinformation On Sexual Health And Abortion And Have Been Known To Delay Access To Medically Legitimate Prenatal And Abortion Care

Planned Parenthood: Crisis Pregnancy Centers Were Run By Anti-Abortion Activists Who Try To Scare People From Getting An Abortion. “Crisis pregnancy centers (also called CPCs or "fake clinics") are clinics or mobile vans that look like real health centers, but they're run by anti-abortion activists who have a shady, harmful agenda: to scare, shame, or pressure you out of getting an abortion, and to tell lies about abortion, birth control, and sexual health. Crisis pregnancy centers don’t provide abortion or offer a full range of health care, and they won’t give you honest facts about sexual health and your pregnancy options — their goal is to spread misinformation and propaganda.” [Planned Parenthood, 11/4/21]

Crisis Pregnancy Centers Engage In Manipulative And Deceptive Practices That Spread Misinformation On Sexual Health And Abortion And CPCs Have Been Show To Delay Access To Medically Legitimate Prenatal And Abortion Care. “Crisis pregnancy centers (CPCs) are nonprofit organizations that present themselves as healthcare clinics while providing counseling explicitly intended to discourage and limit access to abortion. These facilities engage in purposefully manipulative and deceptive practices that spread misinformation on sexual health and abortion. CPCs have also been shown to delay access to medically legitimate prenatal and abortion care, which negatively impacts maternal health.” [National Library of Medicine, 6/8/22]
