The Skin Cancer Foundation

Mission

Since its founding in 1979, The Skin Cancer Foundation has saved and improved lives. They empower people to take a proactive approach to daily sun protection and the early detection and treatment of skin cancer. Skin cancer is the world’s most common cancer, but it is highly preventable and highly treatable if detected early, before it has a chance to spread. Skin Cancer Foundation programs include Destination Healthy Skin, where they provide free skin cancer screenings in communities around the country; The Big See, a public service advertising campaign promoting skin cancer early detection; and the Seal of Recommendation, awarded to products that meet the Foundation’s criteria for effective sun protection. The Foundation also provides research grants for early career investigators.
