Avon Foundation Associate Giving Campaign
Each year Avon locations across the U.S. hold giving campaigns to raise money for local, national and international charities through donations from Avon associates. In 2007, our associates raised over $190,000. These funds were matched by the Avon Foundation, with over $400,000 going to children’s charities, breast cancer programs, shelters, environmental programs and literacy programs, to name just a few of the worthy causes.
