Good news, everyone. You care about protecting women's rights. A LOT. Thank you.
Since Friday, when we began our fundraiser for the Planned Parenthood clinic in Pullman (which was the victim of a terrorist attack), more than one hundred of you have donated, totaling $6,160.
You guys are awesome. Time and time again, you've told us why you're making sacrifices for Planned Parenthood: "Because it's the right thing to do."
More good news: You still have time to donate! Don't forget to forward us a copy of your emailed receipt and tell us why Planned Parenthood is important in 100 words or less to be eligible for special giveaways. The deadline is Friday, September 25 at noon. (Email charity@thestranger.com.)
Last week, Planned Parenthood set up a pop-up clinic "to provide condoms, Plan B, and also birth control prescriptions to existing patients. A pretty cool illustration of the resilience and commitment that our health center staff have in the face of this arson," wrote Erik Houser, a spokesperson for Planned Parenthood Votes Northwest and Hawaii, in an email.
Also, KIRO Radio's Mark Rahner covered our fundraiser over the weekend (thanks, Mark!) and called the arson "an attack on women and poor people."
