First Lady Michelle Obama was in attendance as the Avon Foundation for Women (www.avonfou-ndation.org) presented a $500,000 grant to the U.S. Department of State Secretary’s Fund for Global Women’s Leadership to accelerate the global movement to end violence against women. Andrea Jung, Avon chairman and chief executive officer, and Reese Witherspoon, Avon Global Ambassador and Honorary Chairperson of the Avon Foundation, made the announcement at the International Women of Courage Awards, hosted by Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton. The U.S. Department of State will use the grant to fund innovative and breakthrough programs developed by international non-government organizations for the purpose of ending violence against women. To date, Avon global philanthropy has committed more than $16 million to end violence against women, including $8 million generated from the global sales of Avon Empowerment Products developed in partnership with Witherspoon.
