About Us
Melanoma Awareness is a Minnesota Non-profit Corporation and a 501(c)(3) Public Charity established in 2005 in honor of Keith Kamman, a talented Architect
and dedicated husband, father, son and friend, who passed
away from melanoma at the age of 33.
Here's Keith's story
Our mission is to:
Raise public awareness about melanoma
Provide moral support to melanoma patients and their families
Support and promote melanoma research
Why is Black the Color for Melanoma?
Melanoma means "black tumor".
Black is the color of the warrior's mood when going into
battle and the melanoma patient is in a battle for his/her
life.
Black is the color of our rage when we consider the lack
of progress and lack of research funding we see after 25 years
of the so-called "War On Cancer".
