We've made a big commitment. To participate in the Avon Walk, we're going to spend months training to prepare for an entire weekend's walk. Each one of us has to raise at least $1,800 in donations. But we're in this together, and we know that, with your help, we can do it. Please support our team.

You can make a donation to any team member by clicking on their name. If you'd prefer to write a check, just contact one of us and we'll send you the form and information.

At a moment in our history when another person in the United States is diagnosed with breast cancer every three minutes, waiting is not an option. In a year when approximately 40,410 women and 460 men will die of the disease, patience is not a virtue. Walking is!

If there is one common denominator that unites every Avon Walker, volunteer Crew member, or Donor, it’s the belief in the power of impatience. Yes, impatience! No matter what their age, background, or physical ability, the typical Avon Walker asks not how far they have to walk or how much money they need to raise, but instead, how far can they walk and how much money can they raise, all with the purpose of eradicating breast cancer.

An Amazing Feeling of Accomplishment. You will receive an amazing feeling of accomplishment that will stay with you from the moment you register until long after the Walk, knowing that you are taking an active role in helping to put an end to breast cancer.

I've committed to participating in the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer. That means spending the next few months training and fundraising and then walking for an entire weekend. I'm just one of thousands of people all over the country who will be doing this in 2006, all to raise funds for the Avon Foundation Breast Cancer Crusade and support their mission of providing access to care and finding a cure.more..
