Avon Breast Cancer Crusade-Why Its important to me


I just wanted to bring awareness to how Avon supports awareness, education, screening, care, support and research.  I lost my mum 2 months ago to this disease and its important to me to represent a company that has the same beliefs as I do and would make my mum proud.

 At Avon, every month is breast cancer awareness month. Since 1992, the Avon Breast Cancer Crusade has been working tirelessly to help prevent, treat, and ultimately eradicate this disease. With more than $780 million raised and donated to breast cancer programs around the world, Avon is the leading corporate supporter of the cause globally. The Crusade's life-saving work supports awareness and education, screening and diagnosis, access to care, support services, and scientific research.

Beneficiaries range from leading cancer research centers to local, nonprofit breast health programs, creating a powerful international network of research, medical, social service, and community-based breast cancer organizations.

In Canada, Avon has raised and donated over $20 million to breast cancer research, screening, support services, education and awareness.

Avon Canada has a long-standing history of unique fundraising initiatives and awareness campaigns, engaging its expansive network of Representatives and Consumers across the country who are equally committed to putting an end to breast cancer. By personally reaching out to Canadians with a message of hope and a call to action, Avon Canada has been making a difference.
