It's all about stuffing their corporate coffers. 
They do the same thing--cancer screenings, etc. And they don't waste their money on the administrative end.
Planned Parenthood, we all may recall, was the outfit that Komen stiffed for breast cancer screening funds over some poutrage that they actually helped people with reproductive advice and medical care. The nerve of them 
... they had always diverted some of their money in the past, so that PP could do the screenings that they took credit for, but they wanted to get seriously political and they destroyed themselves with their own hubris.
Mayor Bloomberg, who is pro-choice and despite many boneheaded choices during his tenure did a good thing in this instance, wrote them a MASSIVE check--of course, to him it was like flipping a quarter to a newsboy in one of those forties pics..but still. And of course a shitload of people (myself included) sent a Fuck You Komen check to PP just because their goal was to cripple PP and drown it in a bathtub.
the NFL has had its' headaches and egregious publicity, I think if all the teams STOPPED promoting "pinkness," it would go a long way to shutting down this scammer. She and Palin are cut from the same cloth.

...Here are some breast cancer organizations that do not engage in “pinkwashing:” Claiming to care about breast cancer by promoting a pink ribbon product, but at the same time producing, manufacturing or marketing products or misinformation that are linked to the disease. Help them continue to help others with their communication of accurate information and practical support for the sake of both research and patient care.
