On February 18, Avon celebrity partner Zoë Saldana visited the Dominican Republic along with Bob Briddon, Group Vice President, North America Marketing, and helped deliver a generous donation of Avon products to the Dominican Republic Red Cross to aid in the Haiti earthquake relief efforts.
The trip comes a month after every North America facility held a clothing drive to collect much-needed items such as clothing, bedding, towels and personal care products for victims of the earthquake. Thousands of boxes of donations were collected and then shipped to the Dominican Republic facility which served as a staging area.
Saldana, Briddon and Maria del Carmen Sanchez, Country Manager, Avon Dominican Republic, joined Associates in delivering the donations to the Red Cross. They were greeted by a flood of press, as more than 50 media outlets met the caravan, and interviewed Saldana, del Carmen Sanchez, Briddon and Red Cross volunteers about Avon's contribution. Later in the day, Saldana posed for photos with Red Cross staff and volunteers in front of the truckloads of supplies.

Miracles really do happen
I wanted to share this with everyone - This is a true story. I know Dee and Marty personally. I worked for them at Quality Protection Screens in 1992 and we have been friends ever since. They are very wonderful people and they really deserved this miracle. Here's the e-mail I got from Dee yesterday.
Hi,
Marty was diagnosed with Stage 3 Lung cancer in 2 lymph nodes on November 30th, 2009. He has been going thru Radiation and Chemotherapy in hopes to shrink his tumor enough to have surgery with removal of his right lung. His chances were slim at the time of diagnosis. He has had a tough road, dealing with severe pneumonia, that landed him in the hospital for a week during the new year and lost about 40 pounds.
He has had a team of 4 major doctors: Pulmonary, Radiation oncologist, Chemo oncologist, Thoracic surgeon, and the blessings from all our family and friends and GOD.
Today we are overjoyed to get the report that the treatment was successful. So successful that we are told NO Surgery is needed. His CAT SCAN on Tuesday, shows NO TUMOR. Although, he will continue with 2 more weeks of radiation and chemotherapy - A truly remarkable recovery.
We cannot Thank you enough for your support and well wishes. GOD has heard our prayers.
All our love,
Dee and Marty
The last week has been really hard for me. I have been feeling really hopeless - This no job thing has really been getting me down. Hearing this from Dee really gives me hope that things will turn around for me. I hope it does the same for you.
HUGS!!!
