As a company committed to the advancement of skin health and beauty, we're always looking for organizations that help further the cause of healthy skin. As we embark on this New Year, we'd like to take more time to promote the efforts of noteworthy groups that are making a difference in our lives. This month, we'd like to highlight the efforts of the Skin Cancer Foundation.

About the Skin Cancer Foundation

The Skin Cancer Foundation has been dedicated to educating people about skin cancer and prompt treatment since 1979. Their efforts have led to advancements in early detection and prevention as they have brought national awareness to skin cancer and funded nearly 100 clinical studies.

Skin Cancer Awareness

Skin cancer is the most common cancer in the world. According to the Skin Cancer Foundation, more than 13 million cases of skin cancer are diagnosed every year, with up to 65,161 people dying annually from the disease.
