Black Entertainment Television Foundation
The BET Foundation is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization established in 2003 by BET Networks to create a national healthy lifestyles campaign. The mission of the BET Foundation is to promote healthy lifestyles among African-Americans, focusing primarily on the issue of obesity, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, some forms of cancer, mental health disorders and other associated health conditions. The BET Foundation highlights behavioral factors in the African-American community that lead to these health conditions in order to effectively alleviate these concerns among community members. BET Foundation has collaborated with SSA to educate the public about skin cancer, and specifically to dispel myths and misconceptions about skin cancer in skin of color populations.
 
Tuga Sunwear

The Tuga Sunwear line of sun protection clothing was created in order to give kids and parents the ability to assure the best sun protection from harmful UV damage, but do so in a fun and fashionable way. The Tuga philosophy is that in order to protect your skin from the sun, you don't have to go to the extreme by wearing clothing that tries to cover every inch of skin. We also don't think that you have to trade off style and fashion for sun protection. Too many products on the market focus on the utilitarian approach and forget the fact that in order for the products to be effective, they have to be used. And kids will not use products that are boring or "un-cool", but they will love Tuga's sun protection clothing.

Tuga and SSA have partnered to provide educational resources to the public to promote sun safety and skin cancer prevention! Please visit www.tugasunwear.com to purchase sun protective products with a percentage of proceeds donated to SSA! (code: sunsafety)
