Edit: Also, the loss of money from the foundation wouldn't have been a huge hit for them, and it's been more than made up by the spike in contributions that resulted. I think the Komen group did more damage to themselves than they did to PP. Komen grants helped provide breast cancer prevention and detection at 19 of the 79 US affiliates, $680,000 in total in 2011, if memory serves.
Big PP supporter here, but I think to say that Komen's funds are a huge chunk of PP's budget overstates what the financial loss would have been.
