MISSION AND VISION STATEMENT

"We envision a world where every adult and child is aware of the risks of melanoma and takes preventative measures; where those who suffer from melanoma receive comfort and healing; and ultimately, where every case of melanoma will be completely curable."

Our mission is to realize this vision by raising funds and providing programs to raise awareness, fund research and promote healing.
