The Avon Foundation Breast Cancer Crusade launched in 1992. Avon now supports breast cancer programs in 50 countries, including Argentina, Australia, Brazil, China, Italy, Malaysia, Mexico, Poland, South Africa and the Philippines.

In its 50th anniversary it has raised more than $400 million for the breast cancer cause. Funding is awarded to five areas of the breast cancer cause: breast cancer awareness, screening and diagnosis, treatment, support services and scientific research.
