Big Brothers, Big Sisters

Since 2007, Avon Canada has been a proud supporter of Big Brothers, Big Sisters of Canada, helping to establish and develop “Go Girls! Healthy Bodies, Healthy Minds” mentoring programs across the country.

Go Girls! is a program designed to address the physical activity, balanced eating and positive self-image needs of young women ages 12-14 based on a group mentoring model. To date, Avon has donated over $200,000 to the cause and this year through Avon’s Smile Contest, the company plans to donate another $50,000. www.bbbsc.ca.
