How is IPPF/WHR funded?
IPPF/WHR relies on support from individuals, foundations, and governments for its essential sexual and reproductive health care services. As a member of the International Planned Parenthood Federation, IPPF/WHR receives core support from IPPF for its ongoing operations. We have not received funding from the U.S. government since 2001, when IPPF/WHR refused to sign the Global Gag Rule, resulting in a loss of $12 million in funding. This deplorable policy denies U.S. development aid to any group that provides abortion services, or advocates for changes in abortion laws with its own funds. International Planned Parenthood Federation/Western Hemisphere Region, Inc. is recognized as tax-exempt under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. EIN 13-1845455.
