The $1 million donation made a significant contribution towards breast cancer research and prevention, helping to make a difference to the lives of women throughout Australia and indeed the world.
“Breast cancer is not one single disease – it is different for every woman diagnosed. Our challenge is to identify through clinical trials, the most effective tailored treatment which can meet the individual needs of each woman and which will provide her with the best chance of long term cure. This $1 million donation from Avon means our researchers can conduct more clinical trials and provide more women with access to them. What is learned from this research can help to save the life of every woman diagnosed with breast cancer and prevent the heartbreak families experience every day.”
