www.sossaveourskin.com
La Roche-Posay expands it SOS – Save Our Skin Sun Safety Initiative with strategic partnerships. The goal of SOS – Save Our Skin is to not only inform Americans about the dangers of UV rays and the importance of sun safety, but to also incite true behavioral change, such as incorporating sun protection in their daily routines and visiting their dermatologists for regular skin checks. The SOS – Save Our Skin campaign lives through a series of initiative including skin checks at Yankee’s games in New York and the sponsorship of the Women’s Dermatologic Society’s (WDS) Play Safe in the Sun campaign to spread the message of sun safety and skin cancer prevention to the public. The outreach includes a series of community service events, such as large-scale outdoor events and grassroots activities. WDS members will conduct skin checks in their local areas as part of the public health initiative to educate about sun safe behaviors. Additionally, La Roche-Posay provides thousands of sunscreen samples per year to be distributed at events. Educational materials containing information on sun safety practices are also be distributed.
