Black and Blue Relay is pleased to partner with the Avon Foundation Need for Speed Against Domestic Violence series.
Every year up to 10 million children witness some form of domestic violence, and they need your help. We are asking
each team to raise funds to help end the cycle, so these children don't become victims or abusers in the future.
