Avon Speaks Up for Domestic Violence

Avon is known as The Company for Women, and so, they focus much of their outreach to struggles many women suffer from.  Many of you know Avon does SO MUCH for breast cancer, but did you know, Avon also speaks up for Domestic Violence?
"Speak Out" is a campaign that began in 2004, and within 5 years has been able to donate $10mil+ to shelters and agencies dealing directly with the victims.  1 in 4 women will be a victim.

5 Facts You Should Know

1. One in every four women will experience domestic violence in her lifetime
2. 85% of domestic violence victims are women
3. Females who are 20-24 years of age are at the greatest risk of nonfatal intimate partner violence
4. Most cases of domestic violence are never reported to the police
5. Witnessing violence between one’s parents or caretakers is the strongest risk factor of transmitting violent behavior from one generation to the next

I was one of the 1 in 4 ... no bruises, but scarring none-the-less.

This keychain is in campaign 19's Outlet brochure, on mega-sale for just $1.50.  Check it out HERE.
More Speak Out products can be found HERE.  


Net profits are donated.  Every penny helps.  Every opportunity to Speak Out, helps you beat it.
I will be buying this keychain.


In fact with your order, I will buy you one too.  You don't have to tell me your story, but if you are one of the 1 in 4 women like me, I'd like to gift it to you as a way to say, I've been in similar shoes & will Speak Up for you & beside you.


Yea its a silly, plastic keychain.  In the GRAND scope of things, it might not make a difference at all.  But if it will FOR YOU, then that is enough.  YOU ARE ENOUGH.
