4 S K I N C A N C E R F O U N D A T I O N J O U R N A L ON THE COVER , award-winning illustrator Edwin Fotheringham depicts sun protection as "a way of living". Following The Skin Cancer Foundation's sun protection guidelines, a young, stylish couple enjoys an outdoor stroll, while wearing wide-brimmed hats, sunglasses, long-sleeved shirts and long pants. For added protection, the man holds up a parasol for his partner. Fotheringham—whose illustrations have appeared in The New Yorker, Vanity Fair and InStyle, has a personal connection to this cover. In his native Australia, where skin cancer rates are the highest in the world, Fotheringham says skin cancer prevention has become ingrained in the culture. "Australians have successfully made sun protection an everyday af air," he said. 98 79 International Alliance Against Cancers of the Skin 82 2014 Research Grants 83 Professional Members 88 The Dr. Rex and Johnnie Amonette Circle 90 The Robins Fund for the Advancement of Mohs Surgery 92 2013 Donors 94 Corporate Leadership Council U.S. Corporate Council International Corporate Council 95 References 98 Highlights from The Skin Cancer Foundation's Recent Events 100 Seal of Recommendation MISSION STATEMENT OF THE SKIN CANCER FOUNDATION The fi rst organization in the US committed to educating the pub- lic and medical professionals about sun safety, The Skin Cancer Foundation is still the only global organization solely devoted to the prevention, detection and treatment of skin cancer.
