I am thankful that Thrivent offers "choice" dollars. You do not have to send your dollars to Planned Parenthood. Others choose to do so. Others have seen that Planned Parenthood has offered services to women what are essential to their well-being. Maybe you have the luxury of finding a place to meet your health needs, not all women have this made available to them Planned Parenthood is there for many physical and emotional needs. Do I withhold support because they also provide abortion services? No.
