In 2009, Bristol Palin was appointed teen ambassador for the Candie's Foundation, and her task was to raise awareness of teen pregnancy prevention. See, it's not a good idea to get p/g when you haven't even finished high school, and walking the floor with a screaming baby at 3am is not fun.
But it's making Bristol rich. So . . . what's that message, again?
Silly me. I thought maybe this advocacy was something she did to contribute to a good cause and to help other girls benefit from her carelessness.
Wrong.
The Foundation's report posted online reveals that they paid Bristol $262,500 for 2009 alone.
Seems like the Palins of Alaska have done pretty well for themselves by losing an election. If Mama Grizzly had made it to the White House, this would all be too unseemly.

It gets worse.
ReplyDeleteIn the same year that the Candie's Foundation paid Bristol $262,500 to tell girls to save it for marriage, it paid only a grand total of $35,000 in actual grants to teen pregnant health and counseling clinics.
Sounds like they're into celebrity -- and maybe helping out the poor Palins.
