FACIAL PAIN RESEARCH FOUNDATION INC
Mission Statement
The FPRF is the only organization in the world dedicated solely to funding research that will cure neuropathic facial pain, often classified as the “worst pain known to mankind.” It is an all-volunteer group, that puts over 95 cents of every dollar that comes in directly towards research. Since its inception over 12 years ago, FPRF has raised over $5.5-million to fund eight distinct research programs to find the cures. It has helped create two venture capitalized corporations. The $5.5-million served in a multiplier capacity resulting in almost $50 million in venture capital, NIH, or other Foundation funding for research.
