Introduction
This study discloses the publicly available external funding sources for Planned Parenthood Federation of America, Inc. and its affiliates (collectively, “Planned Parenthood”) from 2016-2025, with the primary focus on the years between 2019-2025. Identified funding sources encompass government sources, including but not limited to Medicaid, the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP), numerous grants issued by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (e.g., Title X) and lesser-known sources, such as the Paycheck Protection Program administered by the Small Business Administration. Sources of government-facilitated funding[1] are also included. Finally, while more difficult to locate, known donations from private donors and foundations are included. Although Planned Parenthood claims to “offer a robust vision and common-sense solutions designed to protect women’s health and safety and the basic human rights of us all,”[2] it prioritizes abortion access above all else. Though the Hyde Amendment is supposed to protect federal monies from directly funding abortions, any and all funding given to Planned Parenthood will ultimately serve its core mission of advocating for and performing abortions.
Methodology
Parameters
This study only reviewed funding related to the Planned Parenthood Federation of America, Inc. (PPFA) and its affiliates located within the United States, without reviewing the funding of International Planned Parenthood Federation and its international locations. The study was also limited to years 2016-2025 and excluded donations and funds from Planned Parenthood Political Action Committees (PACs) and national, state, or local advocacy entities, such as the Planned Parenthood Action Fund.
For Medicaid/Medicare and HHS Funding
The study reviewed past reports from the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO), one covering 2019-2021,[3] and another one covering 2016-2018.[4] To obtain data more recent than 2021, searches were conducted through the Tracking Accountability in Government Grants System operated by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS TAGGS).[5] TAGGS search, however, did not account for monies obtained as pass-through grants.[6]
For Title X
The study reviewed the latest Title X Family Planning Directory for Planned Parenthood funding,[7] state by state, including Washington, D.C., but excluding any other territories of Planned Parenthood funding for each state by region. This was done to determine which grantees had a Planned Parenthood location within their funding projects.
The author then reviewed each current grantee, checking for those that had Planned Parenthood locations. This background research was then compared with Planned Parenthood subgrantees and site locations listed in the Title X Directory to determine the percentage of Planned Parenthood locations funded associated with each highlighted grantee.
For Private Contributions & Bequests
Because the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that 501(c)3 organizations are not required to publicly post the names of their donors,[8] finding information on private contributions required a Google search for terms such as “Planned Parenthood donors” and “major gifts to Planned Parenthood,” which revealed private foundations and individuals who had voluntarily made their contributions public. The IRS confirms that tax-exempt organizations are not required to make donor information available (including in Form 990 Schedule B).[9] A review of the past three 990s of PPFA shows no donors listed under Schedule B, or else has Schedule B omitted from its 990s.[10]
In the case of foundations, 990s ranging from 2019 to their most current were reviewed. For individuals, this study relied on reports from reputable media.
For Non-Government Health Services Revenue
The amount of money Planned Parenthood generated from providing “health” services is from its most recent annual report.[11] While not every such service could be accounted for by dollar amount, a minimum amount of revenue obtained from abortions was calculated by reviewing Planned Parenthood’s own disclosure of what it charges for abortion, on average, and taking the lowest cost for an abortion (the average cost of a drug-induced abortion) at Planned Parenthood and multiplying that number by the number of abortions it disclosed in its latest annual report as being conducted in 2023-24. (Note again that the service data from Planned Parenthood’s 2024-25 annual report lags behind other data in the report, and instead includes data from 2023-24). A second method, drawing on CDC data, was used to calculate an amount closer to what Planned Parenthood likely made from all abortions (both drug-induced and surgical) at various gestational ages (see the section “Non-Government Health Services Revenue” below).
Limitations
HHS provides the public with a searchable website, Tracking Accountability in Government Grant System (TAGGS),[12] but TAGGS tracks grants awarded directly by HHS and does not include detailed information on subawards or pass-through grants administered by primary recipients to subrecipients.
GAO reports provide a fuller picture of Planned Parenthood funding than any other sources because federal agencies are generally required by law to provide requested information about their “duties, powers, activities, organization, and financial transactions” when the GAO Comptroller General requires this information as part of fulfilling its work. For federal grants to Planned Parenthood, the GAO has noted their sources, such as “cooperative agreements,” interviews with agency officials, and audit reports from the Federal Audit Clearinghouse.[13] The federal law establishing and governing GAO provides the ability for GAO to make government spending more transparent, such as in these published reports, accounting for pass-through monies—information that would not be readily available to the public. For 2022-2025 data, the study relied on TAGGS. This means that while TAGGS provides comprehensive data on direct federal grants, it might not account for funds that are passed through to other entities by the initial grant recipients.[14]
Finally, all the private contributions and bequests funding sources could not be obtained because Planned Parenthood does not publicly disclose the names of all its donors, as noted by one of its affiliates.[15]
Funding Overview
As of June 2026, Planned Parenthood has nearly 600 locations across the country.[16] These locations are 501(c)3 organizations that, for its fiscal year 2025,[17] collectively provided a record 434,450 abortions[18] (an increase of over 8% from the previous fiscal year);[19] 2,268,991 contraceptive services, including 542,958 emergency contraception “kits” (which can sometimes prevent the implantation of an already developing embryo);[20] and only 3,038 adoption referrals.[21]
According to its annual report for 2024-2025, Planned Parenthood received $2.143 billion in revenue. This amount is broken down as follows:
- 39% “Government Health Services Reimbursements & Grants”[22]– $832 million
- 34% “Private Contributions & Bequests”[23]– $728.2 million
- 18% “Non-Government Health Services Revenue”[24]– $380.6 million
- 10% “Other Operating Revenue” – $211.8 million
In six fiscal years, Planned Parenthood’s overall revenue has increased by over $500 million, as detailed below:[25]
- FY2024-2025: $2.143 billion[26]
- FY2023-2024: $2.026 billion[27]
- FY2022-2023: $2.054 billion[28]
- FY2021-2022: $1.90 billion[29]
- FY2020-2021: $1.714 billion[30]
- FY2019-2020: $1.641 billion[31]
Government Health Services Reimbursements & Grants
I. Medicaid/Medicare & Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP)
Congress has tried to keep federal monies from funding abortion primarily through the Hyde Amendment, which is a legislative provision barring the use of federal funds to pay for abortion, except to save the life of the woman, or if the pregnancy arises from incest or rape. As of May 31, 2023, the Hyde Amendment has saved approximately 2,566,968 lives.[32]
Despite the Hyde Amendment, Planned Parenthood, the nation’s largest abortion provider, continues to rake in billions from Medicaid. For 2019 through 2021, PP received $1.535 Billion[33] from Medicaid and $3.28 million from Medicare.
While data on Medicaid/CHIP and Medicare funding to Planned Parenthood after 2021 is not available, Planned Parenthood has historically collected hundreds of million annually from Medicaid/CHIP and Medicare. Its funding from 2016-2018 for these programs totaled $1,293.12 billion, according to a 2020 GAO report.[34]
Additionally, twenty states have defied the Federal government by expanding using their own funds to pay for abortion under Medicaid. These states are: Alaska, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Montana, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island, and Vermont.[35]
II. Health and Human Services Grants
The 2023 GAO report[36] also reveals that the U.S. Department of Health awarded Planned Parenthood $86.98 million from 2019-2021. Sixteen (16) of these grants are discussed below. For 2020-2024, “TAGGS” searches[37] were conducted for each grant resulting in a total of $81.24 million, totaling $168.22 million in funding. As explained below, however, many grants are “pass-through grants”, so the actual figure may be higher.
A word on the unavailability of pass-through grants funding information post-2021
“Pass-through grants” start with the federal government, which uses an intermediary like a nonprofit or state government agency to distribute the funds. The intermediaries then take the money and give it to local organizations that need it.”[38]
The report from Government Accountability Office (GAO) supplied the data for funding figures from 2019-2021. It is important to note that the GAO has access to resources not available to the public, such as “cooperative agreements,” interviews with agency officials, and 58 audit reports from 35 Planned Parenthood affiliates.[39] These resources help the GAO account for pass through monies, which are not readily available. US HHS provides the public with a searchable website, Tracking Accountability in Government Grants System (TAGGS), but TAGGs tracks grants awarded directly by HHS and does not include detailed information on subawards or pass-through grants administered by primary recipients to sub-recipients. This means that while TAGGS provides comprehensive data on direct federal grants, it might not account for funds that are passed through to other entities by the initial grant recipients.[40]
Only five of the 16 HHS grants discussed below are provided through direct funding: Teen Pregnancy Prevention Program, Personal Responsibility Education Program, Cooperative Agreement to Support Navigators in Federally facilitated Exchanges, Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Projects of Regional and National Significance, and Grants to Provide Outpatient Early Intervention Services with Respect to HIV Disease.
Based on TAGGS searches,[41] the total amount of funding to Planned Parenthood by HHS grants in 2022-2025 in direct funding was $87.4 million. Broken down by year:
1. Title X: ALN 93.217 – Family Planning Services (Title X Services) Office of Assistant Secretary for Health
Program Summary
Commonly known as Title X, this program funds service grant recipients who support hundreds of subrecipients and thousands of service sites. Family planning includes a broad range of services related to achieving pregnancy, preventing pregnancy, and assisting women, men, and couples with achieving their desired number and spacing of children.
From 2019-2025, Planned Parenthood received $131 million of funding through Title X[46] as follows:
It is highly likely, however, that Planned Parenthood indirectly received significant funding from Title X. See the section below entitled “Title X indirect funding of Planned Parenthood” for more information.
Definitions
Title X uses certain terms that have important meanings, including Project, Grantee, Subrecipient, and Service Site:
Project[50]
Under Title X, a “Project” refers to the comprehensive set of family planning services and activities supported by a Title X grant, which may include multiple grantees, subrecipients, and service sites, and:
Is administered by a grantee and consists of the full network of subrecipients and service sites funded under that grant.
Can cover a single state, multiple states, or specific regions within a state, depending on the grantee’s scope.
Grantee[51]
A “Grantee” is an entity that receives federal Title X funds directly from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Office of Population Affairs (OPA). Grantees are responsible for overseeing the use of funds, ensuring compliance with Title X regulations, and managing the network of subrecipients and service sites under their project. Grantees can be state health departments, nonprofit organizations, Planned Parenthood affiliates, public health agencies, or other qualified entities. A Grantee applies for a Project.
Subrecipient[52]
A “Subrecipient” is an organization or entity that receives Title X funds from a grantee rather than directly from the federal government. Subrecipients operate under the supervision of the grantee and are responsible for delivering family planning services in accordance with Title X requirements. Subrecipients may include county health departments, community health centers, hospitals, and Planned Parenthood affiliates.
Service Site[53]
A Service Site is a physical location where Title X-funded family planning services are provided. These sites may be operated by grantees or subrecipients and include community health centers, Planned Parenthood clinics, university health centers, and local health departments.
History
Title X was enacted in 1970 as an addition to the Public Health Service Act (the “Act”), becoming the only federal grant program directed solely at providing individuals and families with comprehensive family planning and related reproductive health services.[54] Title X provides ample funding for interested nonprofits. The involvement of abortion in Title X funding has varied significantly, depending on the Presidential administration starting with the Reagan Administration.[55] Planned Parenthood has historically been the largest recipient of Title X funds; receiving approximately $50 to $60 million in direct funding annually in the most recent reported fiscal years.[56]
For fiscal year 2024, HHS awarded $286 million to 86 organizations, as primary grantees, in all fifty (50) U.S. states, the District of Columbia, seven territories.[57] Thirteen of the primary grantees are Planned Parenthoods.[58]
Title X indirect funding of Planned Parenthood
As noted above, Planned Parenthood is a major recipient of Title X funds, including both primary grantees and subrecipients. As a primary grantee, Planned Parenthood received $131 million of direct funding through Title X from 2019-2025. Planned Parenthood, however, as also received funding indirectly from Title by serving as a subrecipient or service site under another primary grantee. Taking FY2024 as an example, Title X funded 79 grantees, according to the current Title X grantees (FY24).[59] A review of the Title X provider directory (October 2024)[60] reveals that:
- 35 grantees included one or more Planned Parenthood locations within their funding projects:[61]
- 13 grantees were Planned Parenthood entities.
- All these grantees allocate 100% of their funding to planned parenthood locations.
- Twenty-one other grantees funded Planned Parenthood subrecipients and/or site locations.[62]
- Forty-three percent of the Current Title X Grantees (FY24) provided funding to at least one Planned Parenthood location, either as a subrecipient or service site.[63] Among Title X projects that funded one or more Planned Parenthood locations:
- Forty-six percent of the total subrecipients and site locations were Planned Parenthood facilities.
- The total Title X funding allocated all grantees that include a Planned Parenthood within their projects is $127,755,222.[64]
- Three states allocated 100% of their Title X funds to Planned Parenthood locations:
- Hawaii
- Utah
- Vermont
- In all other states, Title X projects distributed funding among multiple subrecipients and/or site locations, though the distribution is not always equal.[65]
Planned Parenthood’s Use of Title X Funding Illustrates its prioritization of abortion
On August 19, 2019, the “Protect Life Rule”, which was designed to re-establish the original bright-line separation between abortion and the use of Title X funding, went into effect. At that time, Planned Parenthood received approximately $60 million[66] in federal Title X funding annually.
In a letter to the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, Planned Parenthood indicated that all Planned Parenthood grantees and sub-grantees will withdraw from the Title X program by close of business that day and return any related grant monies to the Federal government.[67] This letter revealed that Planned Parenthood’s top priority is performing abortion, rather than preventing a pregnancy that may lead to an abortion.
Notably, Planned Parenthood claimed, and still claims, that it uses Title X funds to provide low-income women wellness exams, “life-saving cervical and breast cancer screenings,” birth control, contraception education, and STI testing and treatment.[68] Planned Parenthood’s willingness to sacrifice Title X funding for family planning so that it may continue to refer and advocate for abortion, and even collocate with abortion facilities, demonstrates that Planned Parenthood cares less about helping low-income women than it does about maintaining its lucrative abortion business.
2. ALN-93.297 – Teenage Pregnancy Prevention Program, Office of Assistant Secretary for Health
Program Summary
The Teen Pregnancy Prevention (TPP) Program, established in 2010 by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ Office of Population Affairs (OPA), is a national, evidence-based initiative aimed at reducing teen pregnancy rates across the United States.[69]

These grants aim to enhance access to a comprehensive continuum of high-quality, community-based care for low-income individuals and families with HIV.[87]
From 2019-2021, Planned Parenthood received $2.43 million[88] in funding for this program. A TAGGS search for 2022-2025 for Planned Parenthood produced no results.[89]
8. ALN-93.498 – Provider Relief Fund (PFR), Health Resources and Services Administration
This grant was established under the CARES Act to support healthcare providers during the COVID-19 pandemic. Administered by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), the PRF allocated funds to eligible providers to reimburse healthcare-related expenses or lost revenues attributable to coronavirus. As of March 2025, PRF is no longer disbursing new payments.[90]
From 2019-2021, Planned Parenthood received $1.65 million[91] in funding for this program. A TAGGS search for data for 2022-2025 for Planned Parenthood produced no results.[92]
9. ALN-93.940 – HIV Prevention Activities, CDC
Administered by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), this grant seeks to assist state and local health departments in establishing and maintaining comprehensive HIV prevention and surveillance programs. The primary objectives are to prevent new HIV infections, improve health outcomes for individuals living with HIV, and reduce HIV-related health disparities.[93]
From 2019-2021, Planned Parenthood received $1.46 million[94] in funding for this program. Data for 2022-2025 is not publicly available due to this grant operating as a pass-through grant for government health departments.[95]
10. ALN-93.865 – Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research, NIH
Administered by the National Institutes of Health (NIH). This program supports a wide array of research initiatives aimed at understanding human development, enhancing reproductive health, improving the lives of children and adolescents, and optimizing abilities for all individuals. Key objectives include conducting laboratory research, clinical trials, and population studies to explore growth, development, biological and reproductive functions, behavior patterns, and population dynamics.[96]
From 2019-2021, Planned Parenthood received $0.81 million[97] in funding for this program; however, this funding must have come indirectly because a TAGGS search[98] did not reveal Planned Parenthood as having received any direct grant under this program. It is important to note that the 2019-2021 figure is from the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO). As noted under “Methodology” in this paper, GAO has access to resources not available to the public, such as “cooperative agreements,” interviews with agency officials, and 58 audit reports from 35 Planned Parenthood affiliates.[99]
11. ALN-93.073 – Birth Defects and Developmental Disabilities, CDC
Administered by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), this program collaborates with state health agencies, universities, and public and private nonprofit organizations to plan, implement, coordinate, or evaluate programs, research, or surveillance activities aimed at improving birth outcomes and enhancing infant and child health and developmental outcomes.[100]
From 2019-2021, Planned Parenthood received $0.58 million[101] in funding for this program; however, this funding must have come indirectly because a TAGGS search[102] for year 2019-2025 did not reveal Planned Parenthood as having received any direct grant under this program. It is important to note that the 2019-2021 figure is from the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO). As noted under “Methodology” in this paper, GAO has access to resources not available to the public, such as “cooperative agreements,” interviews with agency officials, and 58 audit reports from 35 Planned Parenthood affiliates.[103]

In 2023, Planned Parenthood of Southwest and Central Florida Inc, received $150,000.
- 2024-2025: $0[121]
Lesser Known/Indirect Government Funding
I. Small Business Administration (SBA) Loans and Paycheck Protection Program
The 2023 GAO Report noted that Planned Parenthood affiliates were fully forgiven $90.41 million in SBA-guaranteed loans through the Paycheck Protection Program.[122]
II. SECC/CFC
Many Planned Parenthood locations are eligible to receive funding from various sources beyond private donations and government grants, including State Employee Charitable Campaigns (SECCs) and the Combined Federal Campaign (CFC). These programs enable state and federal employees to donate to charities directly from their paychecks via payroll deductions, typically taken post-tax, and offer donors the convenience of consistent giving and easy access to records for claiming tax deductions on their annual tax returns.
While employee charitable campaigns may not generate substantial funds, they provide nonprofits with exposure to new donors and a steady, reliable income stream. Many states highlight participating charities on their websites or through pamphlets and sometimes host events to connect charities with influential community members.
SECC:
The management and structure of SECCs vary widely by state. While most programs are labeled as “SECC,” or something similar, others use distinct names, such as California’s “Our Promise Campaign” or “Give Nebraska”. Some states directly administer SECCs, while others rely on third-party organizations, often local United Way branches, to manage the campaigns. States also differ in their processes for nonprofit participation: some require charities to apply to be included on an approved list, while others allow donors to “write in” any tax-exempt nonprofit. In some cases, states preselect participating charities without an open application or nomination process.
Based on responses to Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests, twenty-two (22) states and Washington, D.C. currently include one or more Planned Parenthood locations within their campaigns.[123]
CFC:
Like state SECC campaigns, the Federal government also offers a charitable campaign for federal employees, run through the Office of Personnel Management (OPM). Since its inception in 1961, the Combined Federal Campaign (CFC) has raised nearly $8.7 billion for nonprofit organizations.[124] On January 1, 2016, OPM adopted New Regulations to “improve donor participation, CFC infrastructure, and standards of transparency and accountability.”[125]
Charitable organizations may participate in the CFC by completing an annual application form via the online CFC Application System.
Planned Parenthood locations have successfully joined the CFC. For example, in the National/International section, donors will find International Planned Parenthood Federation, and the Planned Parenthood Federation of America. Within local sections, donors will commonly find numerous PHOs as well as pro-abortion organizations, such as local Planned Parenthoods. For example, a general search of “all zones” on January 29, 2025, produced only 34 results for “Planned Parenthood.”[126]
III. License Plates
Based on research of DMVs throughout the country, four states currently offer a pro-choice plate option: Alaska, Nebraska, Pennsylvania, and Virginia. In Alaska, the funds go towards the Alaska Children’s Trust, a state savings account that offers grants to programs that help to prevent child abuse. In the other three states, monies from pro-choice plates fund and/or advertise a local or regional Planned Parenthood.[127]
Planned Parenthood Benefits from Any Government Funding
Because money is fungible, Planned Parenthood still benefits as long it receives any government funding. Even if Planned Parenthood were to not use any of the hundreds of millions of dollars from government funding on abortion, it could redirect private funding that would have been used for its general operations to fund abortion. By its own admission in 2022-2023 Planned Parenthood paid for “more than 50,000” abortions.”[128]
IV. Private Contributions & Bequests
Planned Parenthood obtains substantial money from private donations and bequests, broken down by year according to their most recent annual report is as follows:
- 2024-2025: $728.2 million[129]
- 2023-2024: $684.1 million[130]
- 2022-2023: $997.5 million[131]
- 2021-2022: $694.9 million[132]
- 2020-2021: $579.3 million[133]
- 2019-2020: $510 million[134]
Because the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that 501(c)3 organizations are not required to publicly post the name of their donors,[135] obtaining information about private donors and foundations funding Planned Parenthood is difficult. This information can be found in cases where the donors have publicly identified themselves, or where (in the case of foundations) a 990 can be reviewed.
A. Individual Donors
MacKenzie Scott
In 2022, billionaire MacKenzie Scott, the ex-wife of Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, revealed that she gave $275 million to Planned Parenthood, setting the record of making the largest single gift in Planned Parenthood’s over 100-year history.[136]
Lynn & Stacy Schusterman
As reported by Forbes:
“Run by the widow and daughter of oil billionaire Charles Schusterman, who died in 2000, the Charles and Lynn Schusterman Family Philanthropies has given [$5.6 million] to Planned Parenthood, Collaborative for Gender + Reproductive Equity and If/When/How, a nonprofit that works with law students and lawyers to advocate for reproductive justice.”[137]
Sheryl Sandberg
As reported by Forbes:
“The Facebook executive made a pair of $1 million donations [totaling $2 million] to Planned Parenthood in 2017 and 2019. After the draft decision on Roe was leaked, Sandberg wrote in a Facebook post that ‘one of our most fundamental rights will be taken away’ if Roe v. Wade is overturned.”[138]
Elaine Wynn
As reported by Forbes:
“The casino magnate donated $1 million to Planned Parenthood in 2017 after the Women’s March on Washington. Wynn told Fortune at the time that ‘as a woman, a mother and a grandmother, I’m proud to do what I can to help protect access to reproductive health care.’”[139]
B. Foundation Donors
Susan Thompson Buffett Foundation
Established in 1964 by investor Warren Buffett, the Susan Thompson Buffett Foundation focuses on contraceptive and pro-abortion initiatives globally.[140] Allen Greenberg serves as president.
In the 1990s, the Buffett Foundation “helped finance the development of the abortion drug RU-486 … From 2001 to 2014, it contributed more than $1.5 billion to abortion causes—including at least $427 million to Planned Parenthood worldwide [and] $168 million to the National Abortion Federation.” It has also funded the Guttmacher Institute, which “tracks demographic and legislative trends.”[141]
From 2019-2024, the Foundation gave a total of $176.603 million to Planned Parenthood as identified in Foundation’s 990s for the following tax years:

Ford Foundation
The Ford Foundation is a global philanthropic organization established in 1936 by Edsel Ford and Henry Ford with an initial gift of $25,000 to promote human welfare. Darren Walker has served as its president since 2013. In July 2024, Walker announced his plan to step down by the end of 2025.[155] Following Cecile Richards’ passing in 2025, Walker penned a tribute to the former Planned Parenthood president, who had served on the Ford Foundation’s board of trustees.[156]
Based on a search[157] on the Ford Foundation website, between 2019-2025, it donated $11.035 million to Planned Parenthood.
In 2025, the Ford Foundation donated an additional $600,000.[158]
Hewlett Foundation
Established in 1966 by engineer and entrepreneur Bill Hewlett and his wife, Flora, the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation is a nonprofit that says it “invests in creative thinkers and problem solvers who are working to ensure everyone has a meaningful opportunity to thrive.” Amber D. Miller currently serves as the foundation’s president.[159]
Based on a search[160] on the Hewlett Foundation website, between 2019-2024, it donated $7.86 million to Planned Parenthood.
In 2025, the Hewlett Foundation made donations to international Planned Parenthood locations, but not locations within the United States.[161]
John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation
Established in 1970 by insurance magnate John D. MacArthur and his wife Catherine, the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation addresses issues such as climate change, criminal justice reform, and nuclear risk reduction. John Palfrey currently serves as its president.
Based on a review of the MacArthur Foundation’s 990s for 2019-2023,[162] it gave a total of $18,664 to Planned Parenthood between these years.
Packard Foundation
Established in 1964 by HP co-founder David Packard and his wife, Lucile, the David and Lucile Packard Foundation is a private foundation, stating its vision as, “A just and equitable world where people and nature flourish.”[163]
Based on a search[164] on the Packard Foundation website, between 2020-2024, it donated $16.185 million to Planned Parenthood.
In 2026, the Packard Foundation donated an additional $3,683,695 to Planned Parenthood Federation of America and other locations within the United States, as well as $2,312,500 to International Planned Parenthood Federation worldwide and International Planned Parenthood Federation Africa Region.[165]
Bloomberg Family Foundation
In an op-ed,[166] Michael Bloomberg challenged Congress to codify abortion rights into federal law. According to Forbes, Bloomberg “spent $50 million on the issue during his lifetime, including at least $11 million to Planned Parenthood through the Bloomberg Family Foundation since 2015.”[167]
In 2025, Bloomberg Law reported that “Planned Parenthood has received funding from Bloomberg Philanthropies, the charitable organization founded by Michael Bloomberg,” but did not specify dates or amounts.[168]
Of Note:
While this study excluded donations to International Planned Parenthood affiliates, PACs and Action/Advocacy funds, it is worth mentioning that two well-known influencers have contributed heavily to these organizations.
George Soros
As reported by Forbes:
“Through the Open Society Foundations, Democratic megadonor George Soros makes regular contributions to Planned Parenthood’s political advocacy arm, the Planned Parenthood Action Fund. His largest gift to the organization was in 2017 for $10 million.”[169]
In tax year 2023, George Soros’ Foundation to Promote Open Society donated $1.8 million to International Planned Parenthood entities, but not to any locations within the United States.[170]
In tax year 2024, the Foundation to Promote Open Society donated $700,000 to International Planned Parenthood Federation, but not to any locations within the United States.[171]
Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation
Based on a review of its 990s, between 2019-2022, the foundation gave $22,094,924 in support of International Planned Parenthood, Planned Parenthood Worldwide, and other Planned Parenthood locations and projects outside the U.S.[172]
In tax year 2023, the Gates Foundation gave $2,625,000 to International Planned Parenthood Federation European Network.[173]
In tax year 2024, the Gates Foundation gave $3,317,642 to various International Planned Parenthood Entities.[174]
State Funding in Response to Federal Budget Reconciliation Act of 2025
Enacted on July 4, 2025, the Federal Budget Reconciliation Act of 2025[175] includes Section 71113, which imposes a one-year prohibition on Medicaid reimbursements to certain reproductive health care entities that provide abortion services. In response to this temporary federal funding restriction, several states have undertaken legislative and administrative measures to replace the withdrawn federal support with state appropriations and alternative funding mechanisms. Although such state-level fiscal interventions are typically constrained by the applicable budgetary cycle and presumptively will lapse at the close of the fiscal year in which they are enacted, the legal durability and long-term viability of these funding arrangements remain unsettled.
The following nine states referenced funding Planned Parenthood as an objective of their supplemental grants:
California: Governor Gavin Newsom announced a one-time budget addition for FY26 providing “over $140 million in state investments to support Planned Parenthood.”[176]
Colorado: Colorado enacted Senate Bill 25B-002[177] to “reimburse with state funds” any entity impacted by Section 71113. While there is no set amount in the legislation, the fiscal note estimated expenditures of “about $4.4 million.”
Connecticut: On December 18, 2025, Governor Ned Lamont provided notice to state leaders in the General Assembly of his intention to provide a total $10.4 million to Planned Parenthood of Southern New England from July 4, 2025, through July 3, 2026.[178] Lamont allocated these funds from the Connecticut Emergency State Response Reserve, which granted Lamont the ability to use up to $500 million to “address restrictions in federal funding.”[179]
Illinois: On December 23, 2025, the Illinois Department of Healthcare and Family Services announced that it was investing $4 million to “cover the gap created by the Trump Administration’s move to defund Planned Parenthood.”[180]
Massachusetts: On July 24, 2025, Governor Maura Healey issued a press release announcing that the Massachusetts FY26 budget[181] provided a $2 million allocation to the Planned Parenthood League of Massachusetts, Inc.
Maine: Gov. Janet Mills has included $2.25 million in her supplemental budget proposal (FY26) to the Maine Legislature to help “reproductive health care providers” like Planned Parenthood of Northern New England and Maine Family Planning to “offset [the] impact of Federal funding cuts on Maine reproductive health care agencies.”[182] On April 10, the supplemental budget was approved and signed.[183] Additionally, beginning in 2027, Planned Parenthood and Maine Family Planning will be allocated $5 million a year.[184]
New York: On October 24, 2025, Governor Kathy Hochul announced that New York would replace the lost federal Medicaid funding for Planned Parenthood affiliates affected by Section 71113 and direct providers to continue submitting Medicaid claims for reimbursement with state-only funds.[185] The New York Department of Health subsequently issued provider guidance explaining how affected Planned Parenthood affiliates should continue billing Medicaid while the state covers the lost federal share. [186] As of June 29, 2026, New York has not reported how much money has been provided to Planned Parenthood under this supplemental funding.
Oregon: In anticipation of the passage of Section 71113, the Oregon Legislature appropriated $10 million of its 2025 General Fund to reproductive health care providers.[187] In November of 2025, the Joint Emergency Board decided to allocate $7,500,000 to the Oregon Health Authority to facilitate payments to Planned Parenthood affiliates in Oregon for reproductive health services,[188] thereby bringing the total funding allocated to Planned Parenthood locations in Oregon to $17.5 million.
Washington: On July 9, 2025, the office of Washington Governor Bob Ferguson issued a press release announcing that the state would “cover the gap caused by the federal government’s defunding of Planned Parenthood,” estimating the amount to be $11 million.”[189] As of January 2026, Washington’s Medicaid program, Apple Health, stated that it “remains committed” to funding providers that “primarily engage in family planning services or reproductive services and provide abortion services.”[190]
Although not specifically referencing Planned Parenthood, the following two states have made funds available that Planned Parenthood will qualify for:
New Jersey: On December 24, 2025, New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy allocated $8 million (as a one-time allocation) for “reproductive health care providers targeted by the federal government to subsidize care for low-income patients” (emphasis added) as part of New Jersey’s Reproductive Health Access Fund (RHAF).[191]
New Mexico: On October 3, 2025, New Mexico Governor Lujan Grisham signed legislation appropriating $3 million for Fiscal Year 2026 “to contract for health care services provided by nonprofit health care facilities not eligible under federal law to receive Medicaid funding.”[192]
Collectively, these states represent a total of at least $202.5 million in supplemental funding for Planned Parenthood or similar providers of abortion, excluding the unknown amount New York will distribute.
Non-Government Health Services Revenue
It is likely that the $380.6 million in non-governmental health services revenue reported in Planned Parenthood’s most recent annual report[193] is derived from various sources, including insurance and out of pocket payments from their clients. And a portion of this revenue could be payment for abortions covered by these sources, as estimated below.
Planned Parenthood discloses that the average costs of an abortion[194] at a Planned Parenthood range from $580 (for drug-induced abortion) up to $2,000 (for in-clinic surgical abortions depending on weeks’ gestation).
Based on Planned Parenthood’s own data, these statistics would mean that Planned Parenthood received an estimated minimum of $251,981,000 (from any source, but likely predominantly private insurance, out-of-pocket payments, or state funding[195]), taking the lowest average cost of abortion ($580) and multiplying it by the number of abortions performed (434,450), according to its latest annual report.[196] However, the actual total is likely far higher, since not all Planned Parenthood abortions are done by abortion drugs. Taking the share of all abortions performed at different gestational ages reported to the CDC and applying those percentages to Planned Parenthood’s abortion total suggests that Planned Parenthood made approximately $266 million from abortion.[197]
Women may be on the hook for these costs. A 2024 study published in Perspectives on Sexual and Reproductive Health[198] noted that “in states where abortion is not covered by Medicaid, the vast majority of patients pay out of pocket [for abortions].”
Conclusion
Abortion is the top priority for Planned Parenthood and any form of funding assists it in promoting abortion. With its massive amounts of funding, Planned Parenthood is open about its decision to prioritize abortion above all else. In fact, its latest annual report (for 2024-2025) touts its work to expand abortion. Stating for example:
- “Planned Parenthood affiliates’ patient navigators and support staff have helped more than 171,000 people get abortion care since the Dobbs decision — helping with logistical and travel support, as well as patient assistance funds.”[199]
- “During the 2024-2025 fiscal year, Planned Parenthood affiliates disbursed $3.7 million to more than 12,200 patients to help them overcome barriers to abortion care — providing funding for transportation, lodging, meals, and dependent care while traveling to appointments.”[200]
Planned Parenthood was also brazenly proud to announce its efforts to increase the numbers of abortions in the United States. In 2020, Planned Parenthood joined forces with the National Abortion Federation to launch abortionfinder.org.[201] As stated in the 2023-2024 annual report, 863,000 users “accessed abortionfinder.org … from Planned Parenthood’s websites between July 2022 – June 2023.”[202]
Planned Parenthood’s priority funding is reflected in its lack of care of women. While the pro-life movement is focused on creating a nation-wide safety-net[203] to provide compassionate care for women facing a decision related to pregnancy, Planned Parenthood is developing what it describes as a “spider web” to capture women into abortion.
As reported by Reuters, one Planned Parenthood official describes its effort to build a network of patient navigators, whose purpose is to secure money and transportation for women to get abortion:
“It’s really a big spider web that’s being built throughout the country,” said Angela Huntington in Missouri. She was hired in September as the first patient navigator at the Planned Parenthood Great Plains affiliate, which operates clinics in Arkansas, Missouri, Oklahoma and Kansas.[204]
A recent expose’ in the New York Times[205] reveals more shocking information related to Planned Parenthood’s abortion priority and lack of care for clients and staff:
- “Since the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in 2022, Planned Parenthood has enjoyed a fund-raising boom, with $498 million in donations that year. But little of it goes to the state affiliates to provide health care at clinics. Instead, under the national bylaws, the majority of the money is spent on the legal and political fight to maintain abortion rights.”
- “Over the last five years, the national office has distributed more than $899 million to affiliates to help them deliver care, but none of it went directly to medical services. By charter, the mission of Planned Parenthood Federation of America is to “provide leadership, advocacy and education in the field of reproductive health care.”
- “Many clinics are in dire need of upgrades and repairs. In Omaha last year, sewage from a backed-up toilet seeped into the abortion recovery room for two days, according to interviews with staff members and photographs and text messages shared with The Times. Employees shoved exam table pads under the bathroom door to block the leak. Patients vomited from the stench.”
- “Employees said there has been constant pressure to more than double the number of patients seen from the present 2.1 million, to help bring in more revenues.”
- “Training has been a constant issue, especially for medical assistants, who are not required to have medical training to work in the clinics. They recount stories of seeing children as young as 12 and 13 years old receive abortions, sometimes because a family member impregnated them.”
Overall, Planned Parenthood has built itself up to a “non-profit” organization with annual revenue exceeding $2 billion. Despite what it would like the public to believe, it prioritizes abortion above all else. Any form of government money to Planned Parenthood only serves to support its advocacy and provision of abortion.

Trump administration pauses some family planning grants as it investigates compliance with laws. https://apnews.com/article/family-planning-trump-grants-9767fee833444c7eb5e60de1e4a5d680 (Retrieved April 20, 2026).

[55] Title X provides the Secretary of Health and Human Services wide latitude in interpreting the Act through issuing regulations. While the Act clearly prohibits its funds to be used in programs where abortion is a method of family planning, Presidential Administrations have interpreted this requirement in varying ways. During the Reagan Administration, regulations were issued on Title X that were designed to ensure the physical and financial separation of abortion facilities from those receiving Title X grants. The Reagan regulations further barred Title X grantees from engaging in such practices as counseling, referring for, or promoting abortion as a method of family planning. The Supreme Court upheld the regulations in 1991 in Rust v. Sullivan (500 U.S. 173). Under the Clinton Administration, Title X regulations were revised to specify for the first time that Title X recipients must refer for abortion. Under the Trump Administration’s first term, on February 22, 2019, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) once again revised Title X regulations to solidify the original, intended bright-line rule of separation of abortion from federally funded family planning efforts. This revision was known as the Protect Life Rule. In 2021, the Biden Administration reversed the Protect Life Rule. As of March, 2025, the Trump Administration has not yet restored the Protect Life Rule.

[64] This figure was determined by running an advanced TAGGS search at https://opa.hhs.gov/sites/default/files/2024-11/title-x-directory-october-2024.pdf, selecting 2024, and pulling the data from all the grantees identified in the Title X directory (by “Legal Entity Name”) that included a Planned Parenthood either as a grantee, subrecipient, or service site. Because the specific amounts of funding to subrecipients and service sites is not publicly available, the exact amount of funding specifically to Planned Parenthood subrecipients and service sites (that are not operating under a Planned Parenthood primary grantee) cannot be determined.

[197] According to the last abortion surveillance report published by the CDC (2022), abortions at 9 weeks or earlier accounted for 78.6% of U.S. abortions, abortions at 10-13 weeks accounted for 14.2%, abortions at 14-17 weeks accounted for 4.6%, and abortions at 18 weeks or later accounted for 2.6%. These percentages were applied to Planned Parenthood’s abortion total to produce an estimate of the number of abortions Planned Parenthood performs at different gestational ages. Abortions at 9 weeks or earlier were assigned the price point of $580 (the average cost of a medical abortion at Planned Parenthood), 10-13 weeks were considered to be $600 (the cost of a first trimester surgical abortion), 14-17 weeks were $715 (the cost of a surgical abortion early in the second trimester), and abortions at 18+ weeks were assigned $1500 (the lower range of the cost of an abortion later in the second trimester). The gestational ages at which U.S. abortions are performed may have shifted since 2022, but the CDC report provides a benchmark for these estimates.
