On The Move for Melanoma Research, Education, & Awareness || WITH WHIT
On the move! This summer, the annual fundraiser 5K, Miles for Melanoma (MRF) is back in Chicago. Register your team for the run/walk at Montrose Beach Park, happening on Sunday, July 21st. Your participation supports and raises funds for nationwide research, education, and awareness of Melanoma. Come join me in running alongside these warriors, caregivers, and supporters!
At any pace, YOU can make a difference. The Melanoma Research Foundation, the largest independent organization devoted to Melanoma, instills hope and initiates active change for those who have been affected. Your contribution can come in any size! Whether through a donation, running, or cheering on the sidelines, your presence acknowledges those who have gone through so much with Melanoma and celebrates their courage in fighting against it.
Behind every statistic for this disease, is humans, going through their unique and individual journey with Melanoma. At MRF, I’ve gotten the chance to meet those, who bravely share their stories of resilience. I walk away from these conversations feeling incredibly moved as well as educated on the ways all of us can prevent, detect early, and teach those about Melanoma. Their stories make a difference for the better and save lives!
I will be Emceeing this event, and I am so excited! Meet me at Montrose Beach for a fun, early-morning 5K for a great cause! Details about Chicago’s participation can be found here.
Jane Lynch, HEALTH PRIVACY
Emmy Award-winning actress and comedian Jane Lynch is the featured voice in Apple’s funny and thought-provoking creative spot about an increasingly important topic: health data privacy. The spot tells the fictional story of people whose health information is known by a third party voiced by Lynch, and unfortunately for them, made public for everyone. Whitney chats with Jane about the importance of health data privacy. As people live more of their lives online, they’re sharing more personal data than ever.
Apple's Health app is a pre-installed app on Apple mobile devices such as iPhones and iPads. Its purpose is to provide users with a comprehensive overview of their health and fitness data, such as physical activity, heart rate, sleep, nutrition, and more, all in one place.
