      Dear Patient Community:

      I wanted to let you know about  a unique and exciting opportunity with our partner, The Cancer Support Community:

      • Have you or a loved one been affected by melanoma?
      • Would you like to learn more about the risk of melanoma recurrence and have tools to navigate post-treatment survivorship?
      • Would you like to share your experience to help others?
      • Would you like to learn how to become more of an advocate in your own community?

      The Cancer Support Community is hosting a two-day inaugural Patient Advocate Summit for people who are at high risk of melanoma recurrence and their caregivers. The Summit will take place in October in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.  They are seeking approximately 20 volunteers from across the U.S. to participate. The Cancer Support Community will cover volunteer travel, meals and lodging to and from the Summit. If you are interested in participating, please complete the volunteer application at:

      If you have any questions, please contact the Cancer Support Community at  [email protected] or call 202-650-5369. This program is in partnership with AIM at Melanoma, Melanoma International Foundation, the Melanoma Research Alliance and Melanoma Research Foundation.

      The program is sponsored by Bristol-Myers Squibb. 

      Sincerely,

      Shelby – MRF
