Cardio for a cause: Walk as One for breast cancer

Sep 20, 2009

UPDATE: Due to Supertyphoon Pepeng, Avon Walk events in Manila, Malolos, Vigan, and Legaspi have been moved to November 8, 2009. Avon Walk events in Cagayan de Oro, Cebu, and Iloilo will push through as scheduled. 

Breast cancer is a silent killer that has stricken many of us close to home. With the Philippines having the highest incidence rate of the disease in Asia, it’s only natural that we Filipinos take the necessary measures to fight the disease—or as Avon puts it, “walk all over it.”

Help raise awareness about breast cancer by joining “We Walk as One—Avon Walk Around the World for Breast Cancer,” on October 4, 2009, which will be held simultaneously in seven key cities all over the country. The event will take place in Manila (SM Mall of Asia Open Grounds), Cagayan de Oro (Avon CDO Branch), Cebu (Acon Cebu Branch), Legaspi (Avon Legaspi Branch), Malolos (Bulacan Provincial Capitol), Vigan (Plaza Burgos), and Iloilo (SM Iloilo).
