Skin Cancer, Take a Hike!™
With the AAD’s Skin Cancer, Take a Hike!™ you can join a hike in your area or donate to an upcoming hike. This program supports skin cancer screenings, provides grants to install shade structures, and provides sunscreen dispensers to communities throughout the U.S. Every step is a step towards a world without skin cancer. So step on it!
Learn how your support helps the American Academy of Dermatology provide access to skin cancer prevention and educational programs which increase awareness and protect lives.
Are you interested in pushing your physical limits while supporting a great cause? Our multi-day destination event might be for you. Join us and take on the Dolomites in Italy while raising awareness and resources for skin cancer prevention.
Spearheaded by local resident and student, Adelaide Jackson, the goal of our initiative is to mobilize the Community of New Orleans to help spread the message of skin cancer prevention and detection, while also raising live-saving funds.
Together we made an impact in the lives of patients and in communities across the country. See how our last virtual hike event made a difference. (PDF download)
