People are finding amazing ways to donate to Planned Parenthood and we fiercely love it
After finding out the election results, a lot of Americans, especially women, dealt with a mixed bag of emotions. And the most prominent emotion was fear of what Trump’s win could mean for women’s rights. Because they didn’t know what else to do, people started giving an outpouring of support to Planned Parenthood — making sure to donate to the cause.
It’s no secret that Trump vowed to dismantle Planned Parenthood if elected. Furthermore, the current president-elect has also mentioned overturning Roe v. Wade. This totally goes along with his anti-abortion stance.
Because of this, many people feel helpless because of the election results. Consequently, they are channeling their emotions into their charitable donations.
As a result, Hillary supporters and Trump opposers have joined together to hit the “donate” button in honor of the president-elect. Because the internet is the greatest place ever, we have the social media posts to prove it! And every one of these posts is giving us hope.
First of all, the best Christmas present. We’d love to receive this, tbh! false
Next, a creative way to fundraise — because you can buy a Vaporeon stuffed animal AND donate to Planned Parenthood!

Also, consider an improved version of the “swear jar.”
During the holidays, every time your conservative family members mention trump, put a dollar in a jar to donate to #PlannedParenthood

Or get inspired to use your anger in a productive way. Planned Parenthood will appreciate it, too.
I just found out my mom voted for Trump. I was furious, I walked out, and then I donated $200 to Planned Parenthood. I feel better now.

You can turn Facebook rage into something good, too. (And then hit unfriend, maybe.)
Every time a Trump supporter adds a negative comment to my Facebook status I will donate $10 to Planned parenthood in their name. @PPact

First of all, it’s awesome to see people fighting against injustice in their own ways. We’re also so happy that people didn’t wait until doomsday to start reacting!
In conclusion, donating as little or as much as you are able to can really go a long way. And #DoItForDonald has definitely inspired us to put our money where our mouths are.
