Where does the money go? What programs does the Crusade fund?
Avon has implemented a sophisticated and comprehensive need-based philanthropic strategy that addresses five key areas of the disease: medical research, access to treatment, support services, screening and diagnosis, and education and awareness. Recognizing the complexity of the problem of breast cancer among all groups of women, Avon is distinguishing itself from other corporate donors that fund a single institution or scientific investigator by supporting a virtual national network of research, medical, social service and community-based organizations, each of which is making a unique contribution to helping patients or advancing breast cancer research.
