VRF turned to crowdfunding to fundraise.
As with other non-profit organizations, the VR Foundation always received far more applications than it has funds to support. Even if a project fits within our funding criteria and priorities of the VRF, the Foundation may still be unable to provide a grant. In response to this situation, we launched a crowdfunding campaign because we see it as an great opportunity to raise much-needed funds to meet the needs of vitiligo researchers around the world.
