FOR TOOLS & INFORMATION: http://dcmf.ca/tools

This film was made possible thanks to the generosity of real Canadians and Americans whose lives have been touched by melanoma. These are not actors. We cannot thank this group enough for sharing their stories with us.

We'd also like to thank Freelance Whales, the New York-based group who've lent their song, Generator ^ First Floor, to our film. They're incredibly talented - we thank them for their support and encourage you to find out more about them at http://freelancewhales.com.

Over the past year, we've received messages from all around the world from people whose lives have been touched by this film. Thank you so much for reaching out to us, we're humbled by the support you've shown. We've also been flattered to see a number of other films "inspired by" Dear 16-year-old Me: this is fantastic! We would ask that, in the spirit of mutual support, filmmakers who've taken inspiration from this work acknowledge as much by providing a credit and a link back.

Thank you so much for watching & please pass this along.

    You would think that, wouldn't you? However, the truth is that yes, tanning beds are dangerous. The World Health Organization has issued a warning regarding tanning beds and skin cancer. Unfortunately, youtube won't let me put the link - Google "Skin Cancer Foundation" for more info.
