The Rosacea Research & Development Institute [RRDi] is the first 501 (c) (3) non profit organization approved by the IRS established June 7, 2004 in the State of Hawaii, USA for the purpose of finding a cure for rosacea, researching rosacea, and to form a rosacea patient advocacy organization established by volunteer rosaceans for rosacea sufferers. In December 2019 we have moved the corporate office to the State of Alabama and have registered as a non profit corporation.

Our non profit organization for rosacea patient advocacy web site is a digital data repository of rosacea information that can serve you personally as an armamentarium of rosacea treatment options. We have tools to help you in your search for a cure to rosacea, or at least a way to control it.

We have chosen the Invision Community as the chief digital platform tool (with beta versions for Android and iOS mobile apps) to use, a public platform for guests and inactive members. Our member forum is the most private forum for rosacea on the internet. We also have a private platform using Tapatalk using our rosacea-control.com domain. 

We are rosacea sufferers [rosaceans] and all are volunteers. We rely on donations. No one is receiving a salary or getting paid. We don't spend donated funds on private contractors that are owned by any member of the board of directors. We do not spend donated funds so our members can attend dermatology conventions. All donations are spent on keeping this non profit organization for rosacea sufferers a viable patient advocacy organization and our rules state that 'members may not profit from the institute' (rule number 3). Read our mission statement. 

No one has a paid salary, we pay NO private contractors nor do we use donations so our members can attend dermatology conventions. 

All the other rosacea non profits are not run by rosacea sufferers (see Other Non Profit Rosacea Organizations on this page). Check out the other non profit organizations for rosacea, discover for yourself and you will find out who serve on the board of directors (non rosaceans - dermatologists/businessmen) and then simply follow the money (what does the organization spend most of the donated money on?) and discover for yourself that the other non profit organizations for rosacea spend most of the donations on (1) private contractors, (2) dermatologist member conventions or (3) salaries. We have no special interest other than finding the cure for rosacea and forming a rosacea patient advocacy organization. Our non profit has no salaries, no spending on private contractors, no expenses for member conventions. Follow the money (this is where we spend our money). Notice where most of the money is spent with another rosacea non profit, who has spent millions of dollars on private contractors owned by the president of the non profit and only 10% on rosacea research.
