These shops are donating to Planned Parenthood on Black Friday
Literally the best excuse to shop
In the aftermath of the 2016 Presidential Election, a lot of people who rely on Planned Parenthood for their routine healthcare panicked. Republicans have repeatedly brought the healthcare provider up to the chopping block every time budgets come around, even if no federal funds can go to provide abortions, under Title X.
Under President-Elect Trump and his VP-to-be Pence, women’s healthcare looks incredibly bleak, but in the words of the flawless First Lady Michelle Obama, “When they go low, we go high.”
Doing just that, a lot of organizations have agreed to donate their profits to Planned Parenthood for Black Friday.
The Outrage – Pantsuit Nation Collection
100 percent of the profits from The Outrage’s Pantsuit Nation collection of sassy shirts, hoodies and much more, will be donated to Planned Parenthood. The Outrage’s mission says, “We are heartbroken, but we have work to do.” The profits from this line will always be donated to Planned Parenthood, not just during Black Friday.

Rachel Antonoff – A portion of the Post-Thanksgiving Sales to Planned Parenthood
Rachel Antonoff is no stranger to making a statement with fashion, as her Reproductive line has been making waves since last Fall.

The Reproductive line also includes embroidered t-shirts.

No matter where you do your shopping this year, try to err on the side of ethics. And if you want to donate to Planned Parenthood regardless, you can always do it in Mike Pence’s name.
