The Save Your Skin Foundation is deploying 40 free sunscreen dispensers in eight Canadian provinces this summer. The initiative aims to reduce the risk of skin cancer by providing accessible protection to the public and to those who might not be able to afford sunscreen. The campaign also raises awareness about sun safety and promotes preventive measures against skin cancer. The project also includes an educational component with a game called "Check-a-mole," designed to teach early detection of skin cancer.
This year's expansion includes locations in British Columbia, Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and Nova Scotia. The Save Your Skin Foundation's dispensers offer SPF 30 mineral sunscreen. They will be placed in areas frequented by diverse communities.
