Have you been personally affected by melanoma? Are you interested
in spreading melanoma awareness to
YOUR hometown? Then, our SEED Program may be just the right thing for you!
Our SEED Program (Support through Education, Events & Development) allows you to host an event and potentially save lives in your own community. We have 3 levels of events, providing options for the most experienced event planners to those that have never planned an event before. We also welcome you to submit your own event ideas for approval.
