Vitiligo Walk-A-Thon

2013 Vitiligo Walk-a-Thon

June 22, 2013 – Dallas/Richardson, Texas, 9-12 p.m.

The local Dallas/Fort Worth Vitiligo Support Group, in conjunction with Vitiligo Support
International, is pleased to announce the 2013 Vitiligo Walk-a-Thon! The Vitiligo Walk-a-
Thon’s goals are to help educate and raise awareness in our community about this condition, as
well as to raise funds for Vitiligo Support International (VSI), a nonprofit organization working
to improve the lives of those with vitiligo by offering educational resources, patient/family
support, and promoting vitiligo research and awareness. VSI is a 501(c) (3) nonprofit
organization; therefore, all donations are tax-deductible. Sign-up now for the 2013 Vitiligo
Walk-a-Thon and together we can help find a cure for vitiligo!
