Events

Dave, Andy, Patrick and Marie at the "Balls for Caress" Melanoma Fundraiser

Events are planned to increase awareness about melanoma and how to prevent it, especially among young athletes who, like Andy did, spend so much time exposed to the sun. Andy was passionate about tennis and the outdoors, and our efforts are focused on these types of events.
