The Melanoma Foundation Of New England has kicked off its 2nd annual “Your Skin Is In” contest, which is designed to encourage teens to pledge to stop tanning before their proms.
The Foundation also is sending melanoma survivors to speak at schools throughout New England to draw attention to the contest, share their stories and get students to join the “No-Tanning Pledge” program. The first speaker was Kellie Pedroia, wife of Red Sox player Dustin Pedroia. She spoke at Georgetown Middle-High School and Quincy High School.
