The Migraine Research Foundation is the only nonprofit whose sole purpose is to raise funds for innovative scientific research to further the understanding of the causes and mechanisms of migraine, to develop improvements in treatment for sufferers, and to find the cure. Funding migraine research is all MRF does. Every dollar donated goes to fund migraine research since all of the operating costs are underwritten.
Migraine affects more than 36 million Americans - women, men and children. In spite of the vast prevalence, migraine research is sorely under-funded. Among the programs MRF funds are annual research grants, a special award to encourage young investigators to enter the field of research, and For Our Children, an initiative to fund pediatric/adolescent research in migraine.
