Melanoma Know More

Melanoma Know More (MKM) strives for a world free from the threat of melanoma and is committed to educating the people of Greater Cincinnati about the devastating impact of this disease.

United by renowned melanoma oncology specialist, Dr. Philip Leming, families of Dr Leming’s patients and other melanoma advocates formed a group in 2007, determined to generate awareness about melanoma and educate the community on the importance of early detection and prevention practices in honor of their loved ones. Melanoma Know More is a mission focused non-profit organization with a committed staff, an active board of directors and hundreds of volunteers in the community. MKM has developed successful program initiatives, brought awareness to this relatively unknown disease, and continues to raise thousands of dollars every year to continue the fight against melanoma.

In 2019, Melanoma Know More joined forces with the Andy Caress Melanoma Foundation to create the only Melanoma focused organization in Greater Cincinnati.
