About the Project: A mes­sage from Meghan Rothschild

I cre­ated this life-affirming skin can­cer sur­vivor cal­en­dar to raise aware­ness about this seri­ous dis­ease so that oth­ers may not have to learn about it through per­sonal expe­ri­ence as we women who posed for the cal­en­dar have done. It is the hope of all of us sur­vivors that our mes­sage will bring encour­age­ment to other women who may be deal­ing with body issues to learn to love their body in its true form.

Ninety per­cent of the pro­ceeds from the sale of this cal­en­dar will go directly to the SHADE Foundation, a non-profit orga­ni­za­tion founded by Shonda and Curt Schilling to edu­cate women and men about proper skin care and the dan­gers of sun expo­sure. The remain­ing ten per­cent of the pro­ceeds will be used to fur­ther raise aware­ness of skin can­cer pre­ven­tion through my pub­lic speak­ing engage­ments avail­able to schools, orga­ni­za­tions, sem­i­nars, etc… (www.SURVIVINGSKIN.com)

Thank you for pur­chas­ing this cal­en­dar and your con­tin­ued sup­port for this great cause.
