I love that the Crown Princess has taken this cause on. As a fair skinned person just like Mary, it's incredibly important for young people to know the dangers of the sun and to wear sunblock and hats.

: Mary to fight against skin cancer
:
: Crownprincess Mary began the year's sun
: campaign on Monday April 28th by sending a
: sun dispatch rider off to thousands of
: Danish school children, in the fight against
: skin cancer.
:
: Crownprincess Mary was met by 700 children
: shouting with joy and merry, when she opened
: the Danish Cancer Society's and TrygFonden's
: campaign, "Go out of the sun between 12
: and 15", at Gilleleje Skole.
:
: The campaign has for instance the intention
: of teaching children how incredible
: important it is, to protect oneself against
: the sun's harmful rays, which hits several
: hundred Danes every year.
:
: The Crownprincess was very glad to hear how
: much the knowledge children already have
: about the sun and its harmful effect.
:
: - I am impressed over how much the children
: know about how to protect oneself from the
: sun, Crownprincess Mary said about the five
: children, as they presented the sun
: campaign's most important messages: siesta,
: sunhat, sunscreen. The five children helped
: the Crownprincess with sending the sun
: dispatch rider off out in the Danish holiday
: cottage area.
:
: Beautifully dressed in a red cardigan with a
: fresh summer-skirt, Mary talked actively
: with the school's children, about how you
: can protect yourself from the sun's harmful
: rays.
