Team Truck Melanoma is a nonprofit melanoma outreach organization and racing team on a mission to take melanoma awareness and early detection techniques to the Motorsports community, or as we say, 'Racing for Awareness!' We provide outreach and education in a unique and engaging way to a community of enthusiasts that we too belong to.
Melanoma is the deadliest form of skin cancer, especially when it is caught late, but the good news about melanoma is it is the cancer that you can see with your eyes.
When caught early, melanoma has a survival rate of over 95% at 5 years out, but when caught late, that rate drops below 30% at 5 years.
Team Truck Melanoma is meeting the Motorsports community where they're at. We provide outreach at racing events, car meetups, and beyond, and with the use of our race truck, The LentiGO, we start conversations that can save lives. During the summer of 2023 we did 4 outreach events, and with the help of local dermatologists donating their time our team was able to identify 7 potential melanoma skin cancers, and over 10 potential non-melanoma skin cancers.
Check out www.truckmelanoma.org to learn more and to donate. Your support is greatly appreciated and allows us to continue our lifesaving work. Special thanks to Gresham Beer Fest for making Team Truck Melanoma the title charity for the 1st annual Gresham Beer Fest. We look forward to seeing you AND your skin at the event! Stop by our booth to have one of our dermatologists check out any skin spots you are concerned about!
