Support a fellow vegan in the Avon walk for breast cancer!

[Guest guest]

I'll be participating in the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer May 15-16th. Got a lot of training to do before I walk 39 miles, but it'll be worth it.

It'd be wonderful if any of you could lend a donation my way. Anything helps. Even if you're broke and all you can do is spread the word and the URL around, that would be more than enough and I'd be eternally grateful.

Hi Blue RoseSo... and this is a genuine question... does any of the funding they put into scientific research go to fund vivisection? They seem very unclear on the point on their website...BBPeter

For the curious...From http://walk.avonfoundation.org/site/PageServer?pagename=walk_how_spent_2k7:Will any of the money raised go towards research that uses animal

testing? No. Effective November 1, 2001, the policy of the Avon

Foundation is that no Avon Breast Cancer Crusade funds will be used to

support breast cancer research projects involving the use of animals.On Fri, Jan 22, 2010 at 1:31 PM, <bluerose156 wrote:

If it is the normal pink ribbon walk then it does go towards

vivisection.  When asked to contribute to it at work I emailed the breast

cancer charity and asked them.

That’s brilliant – obviously not the same charity I was asked to

support.
