Bayer Gives Planned Parenthood Clinic in Little Rock $40K Grant

Abortion, , , ,

Bayer has awarded a $40,000 grant to the Planned Parenthood facility in Little Rock, according to statements from Planned Parenthood and Bayer.

The grant is being awarded through a partnership between Bayer and the organization Direct Relief.

According to Planned Parenthood, the abortion facility in Little Rock will receive $40,000 “to fund innovative projects in 2021, focused on expanding reproductive and sexual health care and education” in Arkansas.

Planned Parenthood reports that the money will fund “transformative pilot programs” in Arkansas and Indiana, and that the program in Arkansas will focus on transportation — presumably transporting women to and from Planned Parenthood’s abortion facility on Aldersgate Road.

Pro-life Arkansans routinely pray outside Little Rock’s abortion facilities — including the Planned Parenthood facility. If you would like to be part of this rewarding ministry, call our office at (501) 375-7000, and we will connect you with the volunteers who lead this effort.

  • Defeat President Trump
  • Flip the U.S. Senate from Republican to Democrat
  • Maintain Democratic control over the U.S. House of Representatives
  • Support liberal candidates in state races

All told, Planned Parenthood Great Plains Votes Arkansas currently has $15,190 at its disposal to give to candidates ahead of the elections on the November 3.

Funding Planned Parenthood

John Stonestreet, Radio Host and President of the Colson Center for Christian Worldview.

As the election looms closer, Christians should know both why they should vote and how to think through candidates and issues.

At the very top of the list is the sanctity of human life. The Trump administration has taken clear steps to protect the unborn—from judges appointed to executive actions to showing up at the March for Life. Yet, it is still true that Planned Parenthood, as LiveAction President Lila Rose recently tweeted, “under the Trump Administration . . . receives more money today than they did under the Obama administration. It’s time to hold [Planned Parenthood] accountable for their crimes against children.”

Planned Parenthood officials have admitted under oath that they participate in partial birth abortion and the sale of body parts—both federal crimes . We must let the administration know that any tax dollars going their direction is simply unnacceptable.

And we must press pro-life candidates on how they plan to end abortion funding.
