Testimonials

“Educating kids about the importance of protecting your skin and collaborating with different junior lifeguard programs throughout California has been such a rewarding experience. Presenting on a new beach everyday and getting to meet so many people has definitely been the highlight of my summer and I’m so thankful to have been a part of the Block the Blaze program.”

- Avery

“The thing I loved most about this internship was while I was speaking to the children, I could feel that the information I was giving them was being absorbed into their minds, unlike UV rays when you ‘Block the Blaze."

- Trevor

“This remarkable experience with Block the Blaze this summer not only left a lasting impression on the kids but also fueled an enduring commitment to making the world a brighter, safer place. I had the most incredible experience working with my fellow interns, traveling up the coast of California to educate children about sun safety and the importance of keeping an eye on your skin.”
