Champions for Change Gala

Our 2026 Champions for Change Gala was a tremendous success! Together, we raised $930,000 to support our lifesaving educational campaigns, community programs and research initiatives.

We were honored to recognize longtime Skin Cancer Foundation supporter Adam Schweitzer, Senior Partner, WME with the Champions for Change Award and celebrate his commitment to the Foundation’s lifesaving mission. We were also pleased to present our Impact Award to Michelle Monaghan, Actress and Skin Cancer Prevention Advocate for her skin cancer awareness advocacy work.
