01.06.2019 | Color Me Confident campaign offers free camouflage for kids

In conjunction with Vitiligo Awareness Month, Zanderm launched their "Color Me Confident” campaign. In the United States, Zanderm is offering a free precision applicator ($25 value) to children with vitiligo. This will give any child with vitiligo the opportunity to experience a great new way to hide white spots on the skin, as needed.
 
Vitiligo camouflage maker Zanderm was launched in 2015 on the World Vitiligo Day.  Over the years, the company has perfected a unique formula that, unlike makeup, will not easily smudge or wear off. Zanderm infused this formula into applicators that can put color exactly where you want it. The wide range of shades helps camouflage virtually any type of skin and vitiligo lesions with confidence.
 
Join this campaign and receive a free precision applicator for your child. Simply fill out the application form which you will find on Zanderm’s website. A cosmetic specialist will walk you through the process of finding the most appropriate shade for your child. This free offer will be available for a limited time.

Why Is It Important

There are a lot of people who don't want you to stand up for your rights and demand a cure. They say vitiligo is not life threatening and not contagious, and you must embrace a life of a pariah, hiding yourself from sunlight and from the society.

Vitiligo is an under-researched disease resulting in milky white skin patches on the skin. The breadth and complexity of the disease require international collaboration in therapy development. The severity of the disease calls for national healthcare support.

So, speak up for your condition and your rights. Sign the letter to tell the UN Secretary-General that you want recognition and support. It would be appreciated if you could give every member of your family or group an opportunity for signing.
