What is Protect That Glow?
Protect That Glow is a youth health initiative focused on realistic sun care and oral care habits, especially for youth of color and under-resourced communities.

What’s a Glow Kit?
Each kit includes youth-friendly sunscreen, oral care items, and a one-page guide that explains how and why to use them in simple language.
What We Focus On
Education
Protect That Glow creates simple, evidence‑based resources that teach young people, families, and communities how to protect their skin every day—from choosing sunscreen to understanding skin cancer risks.
Community outreach
Through workshops, school visits, and local events, Protect That Glow brings sun safety education directly into neighborhoods, especially where information and dermatology care are harder to access.
Product access
Profits from recommended sun protection products help fund free sunscreen and other protective items for underserved communities, so the people who most need protection can actually get it, not just read about it.
Started in NYC, Growing at
Protect That Glow started in New York City as a high school project and is now planning to expand in Philadelphia through campus life at the University of Pennsylvania. The goal is to educate youth and spark a generation of healthier, more protective habits.
