The Neil Evans Foundation was formed when Neil passed away aged 48 in June 2021 after a 4-year battle with melanoma. His wish was to continue to live out his legacy by directly assisting others with melanoma by breaking down financial barriers. “We know that Melanoma is preventable however with the high out of pocket expenses being a major barrier for treatment for 40% of patients, this is a major concern. It was incredibly inspiring when Neil said he wanted to raise money to give patients who cannot afford it – access to expensive novel drug treatments – so that they too can have a chance” "The foundation and patient fund will bring to life Neil’s legacy of generosity to help achieve the goal of ZERO DEATHS from Melanoma" – Sonia Nazaretian Founder, Neil Evans Melanoma Foundation
