Why are participants of the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer obligated to raise $1,800 prior to the event?
The Avon Walk for Breast Cancer events are dedicated to raising significant funds for the breast cancer cause. All registered walkers commit to the training and the fundraising that this extraordinary event entails. Upon registration, walkers receive a packet that provides them with information about the event, as well as tips on how to participate successfully. This includes nutritional, training and fundraising guidance and counseling and other mailings. Each walker is also assigned a Walker Buddy to help in training and fundraising. We strongly encourage walkers to take full advantage of the comprehensive support offered by the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer team for training and fundraising. For those who do not wish to fundraise or cannot walk, there are other ways to participate in an Avon Walk for Breast Cancer event. They can support another walker or “crew” or volunteer.
