“OtterBox’s sponsorship of the Crusade and Avon Walk for the past two years has enabled us to support organizations nationwide that are making great strides in breast cancer research and care,” said Carol Kurzig, president of the Avon Foundation for Women. “There is still much more work to do to end breast cancer, which is why we are so appreciative of supporters like OtterBox that are helping us work towards creating a world without breast cancer. We are proud to once again have OtterBox as an official Avon Walk for Breast Cancer sponsor during the Avon Walk’s 10th birthday season and the 20th anniversary of the Avon Breast Cancer Crusade.”

In the fourth quarter alone, OtterBox donated more than $317,000 from the sale of the Commuter Series Strength cases, a marked increase over the $179,000 donated during the entire year previous. Ten percent of the purchase price directly supports the cause. The Strength line features pink-and-white Commuter Series cases for the Apple® iPhone® 4/4S, HTC EVO 3D and BlackBerry® Torch II; as well as two limited edition graphic cases for the iPhone 4/4S.

“We continue to support the Avon Breast Cancer Crusade because we believe in their ongoing commitment to finding a cure for breast cancer and advancing access to care for all,” said Curt Richardson, OtterBox founder and CEO.
