The Mission
Teb's Troops is a not-for-profit organization started
after Tricia E. Black, or "teb" as she was known by her
friends and family, was diagnosed with stage IV
metastatic melanoma. At the time of her diagnosis,
teb was 29 years old and living in Indianapolis,
Indiana with her husband, Michael, and 9-month-old
son, Sam. Wanting to rally her "troops" during her
war with cancer and desiring to make something
positive come from the negative, teb asked her
friends to help her design and sell a bracelet, the
profits of which would go to organizations that
support the treatment, prevention, and research of
cancer, including melanoma. We are now asking you to
enlist as one of her troops by purchasing a Teb's
Troops bracelet to show your support the fight against cancer.
