Project Light Shade
Protecting melanin through sun safety & skincare
About Us
A Youth-Led Movement for Sun Safety
Started by young people who saw a gap in sun safety education, we're on a mission to protect communities and promote health equity.
Who We Serve:
From outdoor workers who spend hours under the sun to youth who’ve never been taught to wear SPF, we serve melanin-rich individuals who’ve been overlooked in public health, media, and the skincare industry.
Why We Exist:
Because sun safety isn’t optional. Because Black and brown skin deserve more. Because protecting your skin shouldn’t feel like a luxury — it should be a right.
