It will take a “green army” to help end deforestation and plant a future. Every day, every person can make a difference. All it takes is a little focus on how you can reduce, reuse, recycle, rethink and, of course, replant.
Around the world, throughout 2011, stylish and affordable Avon Hello Green Tomorrow fundraising products are raising funds to help restore the forests of South America and Indonesia. All proceeds will support the work of our partners The Nature Conservancy and World Wildlife Fund.

“Of all the places WWF works, the rate of destruction in Borneo and Sumatra defies the imagination. Devising a solution equal to the weight of humanity’s pressure on this rich place will take persistence, creativity and collaboration. We are grateful for the support and leadership of partners like Avon who realize we all have an important role to play in meeting this challenge.”

"With support from Avon, The Nature Conservancy has made significant progress in restoring Brazil's Atlantic Forest, one of the most endangered and biologically diverse forests in the world. The Atlantic Forest is home to tens of thousands of plant and animal species - many found nowhere else on Earth – and it is the source of drinking water for 70 percent of Brazil's population. It is critical that we save the Atlantic Forest for both people and nature."
