and I can’t figure out if its true or a half true or what…

Owner of Curves a big contributor to anti-abortion groups?

From here:

In 2003, Heavin and his wife gave away $10 million — 10 percent of their company’s gross revenues — to charities. At least half of that money went to three Texas organizations to fund “pregnancy crisis centers” supported by Operation Save America — the same organization that blamed the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks on God’s retribution for abortions and whose purpose, as described on its Web site, is to “unashamedly take up the cause of pre-born children in the name of Jesus Christ.”

But then there are some corrections to the article that state:

The column specified that the money went to “three Texas organizations to fund ‘pregnancy crisis centers.’ ‘’ Only one of the recipients, Care Net, operates pregnancy crisis centers that are designed to dissuade pregnant women from having abortions while offering other support services to encourage adoption. Heavin has pledged to give Care Net $1 million over the next five years, according to a Curves spokeswoman.

So what gives?

I found this while perusing some feminist blogs. Its a few years old but I had NO idea that this even came up in the media. Guess I had my head buried in the sand for that one.
