Avalon is the first community in the State of New Jersey to partner with a specific foundation to provide free sunscreen to individuals to use on the beach, and playgrounds. Avalon partnered with the Richard David Kann Melanoma Foundation to place the dispensers at the 30th Street beach entrance area, and at a popular playground. Phillies’ Hall of Fame third baseman Mike Schmidt has been a proponent of sunscreen use, and the Foundation, due to his personal battles with skin cancer.
