Warriors Against Melanoma (WAM) was founded in April 2014 by a stage 3 melanoma survivor. It is a non-profit organization that is dedicated to raising awareness of this terrible disease, raising funds for research and eventually a cure, and also directly assisting families dealing with melanoma. A very scary fact is that one person dies every hour, every day in the United States from this. Last year WAM donated nearly $30,000 to the cause.
