Please make sure that you read and understand these guidelines before you apply to any Avon Foundation funding program.

SAFETY NET PROGRAM: ACCESS TO
DIAGNOSTICS AND CARE
The Avon Safety Net Program supports institutions and
organizations that have traditionally cared for uninsured,
at-risk, low-income, and minority patients to enable
medically underserved women to access post-screening
diagnostics and care. Please see the 2010 Breast Cancer
Funding Guidelines above for application deadlines.
The emphasis of this initiative is to provide hospitals
and health care centers with patient navigation programs,
partial equipment support, other personnel and
infrastructure support that will enhance their breast
cancer care services to the medically underserved.
Grant amounts can be up to $150,000 total costs for 1 year.
In 2010 the Avon Foundation for Women has moved to a
paperless application and grants management system. As in
prior years, there is a two-stage process requiring all
applicants to submit a Letter of Intent (LOI). Following
LOI review, a small subset of applicants will be invited
to submit a full proposal. The 2010 Safety Net Letter of
Intent Form can be accessed by following the link at the
bottom of this section. Clicking the link will bring you
to the Safety Net log-in page. Here you will either need
to create a new account (if a new applicant) or use your
existing log-in if you have created an account previously.
If you are creating a new account, it is imperative that
you use your functional work e-mail address as your log-in
e-mail.
