Help Us Raise $15,000 to Power Genetic Research Innovation

At Code for the Cure Inc., we believe small projects can spark big discoveries. That’s why we’re launching a campaign to raise $15,000 to fund a pilot grant supporting research on genetic disorders.

 

What Is a Pilot Grant?

A pilot grant is a small, early-stage research award designed to help scientists gather the preliminary data needed to launch larger studies. These grants often serve as a vital first step toward breakthroughs in understanding diseases, developing treatments, or discovering new biomarkers.

While major grants can require extensive prior data, pilot grants allow researchers to test innovative ideas and explore uncharted scientific territory. Even a modest investment can yield powerful insights that attract larger funding from national research agencies or private foundations later on.

 

Why It Matters

Genetic disorders affect millions of individuals and families around the world, yet many rare or complex conditions remain underfunded. By supporting this pilot grant, you’re helping to:

•  Fuel early-stage genetic research that can lead to major discoveries

•  Empower scientists to explore new diagnostic and treatment approaches

•  Bring hope to families impacted by genetic diseases

•  Lay the foundation for future breakthroughs and larger-scale funding

Your donation directly supports promising research projects that can change lives.

 

Our Goal: $15,000

Every dollar counts. The funds raised will go directly toward launching one pilot study focused on genetic disorders — including researcher support, lab materials, and data collection.

Together, we can bridge the gap between promising ideas and proven medical solutions.
