AAD Shade Structure

Thanks to help from Dr. Greg Brady, an Allentown dermatologist, and the American Academy of Dermatology, CSC has purchased skin-saving shade structures for its unique outdoor play area for Head Start and Early Head Start children. The structure and additional shade trees cost $8000, paid entirely by this generous grant. Dedication of the new structure takes place Tuesday, August 31, 4:30 pm in the Playscape on the Donley Children’s Campus, 1520 Hanover Ave, Allentown.

Skin cancer caused by exposure to the sun is one of the most preventable cancers of all. Even young children should be protected from its powerful effects through shade, spf skin lotions, and covering exposed areas. CSC provides education to parents and children about preventing skin cancer. Dr. brady has been very helpful in this education.
