About Our Charity Partner
The Tara Miller Melanoma Foundation was founded by Tara Miller in 2014.
Tara, a brilliant, generous, young attorney was diagnosed with melanoma in July of 2013 at only 28 years old. When she was first diagnosed, Tara quickly realized the odds were alarming for melanoma and patients were truly living day to day to see what new treatment might be available soon.
As Tara was faced with impossible decisions and weighing treatment options, she decided to start this foundation because she never wanted someone else to be faced with these decisions. Tara knew the money raised through the foundation’s flagship event, the “Make the Best of it Bash,” and other fundraising efforts, likely would not fund new research in time to make a difference for her, but she explained that “hopefully one day we will get to see the money raised by this foundation making a difference in someone else’s fight against this terrible disease.”
