Litty Ligo Vitiligo Community Network

Vitiligo is an auto immune disorder that effects over 2% of the world’s entire population. It manifests in white patches that form on the skin and hair. It can occur at any age and in any ethnicity. About 200,000 people are diagnosed with vitiligo in US every year. These patches "not only affect the skin and hair but also the soul." The Litty Ligo Vitiligo Community Network is an innovative 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that centers and supports the black and brown experience of living with vitiligo. Founded in 2017, we curate programs, workshops, events and campaigns to connect with the millions of people living with vitiligo globally and allies seeking to understand. We partner with organizations, businesses and institutions that serve people living with differences to improve quality of living and quality of care.
