Plus trademark squatting (Robert Smith must be scratching his head).
"Last year, Ms. Tighe's Uniting Against Lung Cancer got a letter from Komen requesting it change the name of the charity's "Kites for a Cure" fund-raiser, a beach event featuring hand-decorated kites, to "Kites for a Cause," or another name. Komen later warned her against any use of pink in conjunction with "cure.""
Which is why my money and donations of goods go to local volunteer ran charities, where nearly all of the money goes to helping people.
