On Sunday, September 23rd Melanoma Network of Canada (MNC) will be holding its 7th annual Strides for Melanoma Walk for Awareness in 19 cities across Canada.
The demand for patient support is growing every year. There are more melanoma patients and caregivers calling MNC for one-on-one support and questions; more hospitals and health clinics requesting resources and information. An increased demand for more support services; such as support groups, peer counselling and national melanoma information sessions. To meet the needs, and continue MNC’s vision of providing support and awareness, we must increase our funding to continue to offer our services and support to melanoma patients and their families.
“on average one person dies from melanoma every hour in North America. Yet the survival rate is high if detected early, which is why events like Strides for Melanoma are so important, not just to raise funds, but also to raise awareness in a community and also to start a conversation about sun safety”
-Dr. Paul Cohen M.D., F.R.C.P.C., D.A.B.D, Canada AM Advisor Dermatologist
