Women members with Avon Foundation

The Avon Foundation for Women has announced $1 million in new grants to 50 frontline services and charity organizations across the world. The emergency grant program was launched in tandem with Avon’s #IsolatedNotAlone campaign, responding to the surge in domestic violence cases in the wake of the coronavirus lockdown.

The funding will provide crucial support for over 250,000 at-risk women and children who are affected by rapidly rising domestic abuse rates. The grants will be shared across 37 countries including Brazil, Mexico, India, the Philippines, Germany, and the UK.

The Avon Foundation’s $1 million in funding will support women around the world and is aligned with Avon’s campaign to help tackle the crisis of domestic violence surging as a result of abusers who are locked inside together with their partners during the Covid-19 pandemic.
