Welcome, and thank you for visiting our AVON 39 team page!
We all know that there's strength in numbers, so it’s with great strength that The Princesshood of the Traveling Boobie Buddies will work and walk toward putting an end to the suffering caused by breast cancer. We each have our reasons for participating - - whether it’s a personal fight with breast cancer, the struggle or loss of a loved one, or a deep commitment to the cause. Our team of powerful and proud princesses, and our faithful prince, are honored to walk with four amazing survivors - that makes the walk hit even closer to home for us.
We've each made a big commitment. We’ll spend the next few months training to prepare for the marathon and a half. You may not know but our team has walked all over the country...Chicago, Denver, Rocky Mountains, Charlotte and Boston, adding Santa Barbara to the list this year and have raised over $600,000 in the past 10 years plus! Each team member is required to raise at least $1,800 in donations, but we all try to raise much more. We are on track to reach the million dollar mark in the next few years, and who knows we may have contributed to finding a cure by then - fingers (and toes) crossed!
Please support our team. You can make a donation to any team member by clicking on their name, and you’ll be taken to their personal page. If you'd prefer to write a check, just contact one of us and we'll send you the form and information.
Please check back here frequently to see how we're doing, and thanks in advance for your support!
