Kelsey
"My name is Kelsey. I'm a college student and I used to go tanning. But when I agreed to appear in the Melanoma Foundation of New England's Public Service Announcement on tanning it changed my life. I got the facts about how dangerous UV rays are. Like, did you know that unprotected skin can be damaged by the sun in as little as fifteen minutes? And that tanning beds emit three to six times more UV radiation than the sun? I realized I was taking crazy chances with my body. I stopped tanning and started seeing a dermatologist regularly. And, I have to admit, I love the way my skin looks now."

Collecting Pledges At School

If you prefer to have your classmates sign the No-Tanning Pledge at school instead of on-line just follow these steps:

1. Download the Form to print and make copies for your classmates to sign. Only one copy of the cover sheet is required. Get at least 70% of the students in any class or classes having a prom to read the facts of tanning and sign the No-Tanning Pledge.

2. Package up the completed pledges and send them to us with the completed Cover Sheet to arrive by 4/1/11. Send them to:

Melanoma Foundation New England
Community Agencies Building
111 Old Road to Nine Acre Corner

Congratulations! That's all there is to it.
