On July 4, AADA staff once again participated in the White House Fourth of July celebration as part of the Cancer Moonshot initiative. The AADA donated sunscreen and SPF lip balm, along with educational materials on sun protection, to help raise awareness about the dangers of skin cancer. Nearly 10,000 people participated in the celebration, including military families.

Cancer Moonshot is a White House initiative to bring renewed leadership to the fight against cancer, facilitate new collaborations, and drive progress across the cancer journey utilizing all facets of the oncology community — federal agencies and departments, private companies, physicians and non-physician health care providers, patient groups, and philanthropic organizations.
