As I wrote about a couple of months ago, Reese Witherspoon is the Global Ambassador for Avon, and she’s working with the company to raise awareness and funds for a variety of women’s issue.
Reese was on hand for Avon once again this past weekend, this time at the sixth annual Avon Walk for Breast Cancer Washington, D.C., where she acted as a special guest. She cheered on walkers and spoke at the closing ceremony. However, this wasn’t the first time Reese was involved with a breast cancer walk.
In her speech at the closing ceremony, she said, “As the Honorary Chairman of the Avon Foundation, one of my first experiences last year was to meet Avon Walk walkers at at training walk in Los Angeles … [I] hope my presence can in some measure express my deep appreciation for all the women and men who participate in the Avon Walks, and for all of the people who dedicate their lives to breast cancer research and care.”
Is there anything not to love about this girl?
