Review for SHADE Foundation of America, New Port Richey, FL, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I have been involved with the SHADE Foundations since 2002. Since that time I have seen the tremndous impact they have had on educating the public with a focus on children. Skin Cancer is often dismissed as a "low-risk" cancer yet the truth is skin cancer will impact over 1,000,000 people in the U.S. this year alone. Through SHADE Foundations' educational programs lives are saved.

I am proud of their ability to use limited resources to reach millions of young lives. Perhaps with their programs we can soon see a major impact in the number of young adults disgnosed with skin cancer each year.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

I have seen many positive campaigns like the summer movei program, bowling, shade coverings for schools, skin cancer screenings and of course the national poster competition. All of these programs have raised awareness.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

Give them more resources to further expand the programs as all of them are very worthwhile.
