Participate in Research
clinical research is not possible without volunteers. Successful recruitment of
the appropriate study population can be a significant challenge for
researchers. You can help us overcome this challenge by participating in our
research program as a patient or healthy volunteer. If you’re interested
in our research program or want to learn more, please email info@wpinstitute.org.
Shop & Give
You can support WPI when you buy or sell on eBay through eBay Giving
Works program.
Here’s how it works:
Buy – You can find whatever you’re looking for on eBay – from baseball
cards to new cars and more. When you do, shop for items that benefit
WPI. You can get a great deal and support clinical research at the same time!
Sell – You can also support WPI when you sell on eBay. Did you know that
charity listings often get more bids and higher prices than regular eBay
listings? Boost your sales and support our critical work while you’re at it!
Plus, eBay gives back to you too with a fee credit on your basic selling fees.
Just designate WPI to receive 10 to 100 percent of your final sale price
the next time you list something.
Amazon Smiles
AmazonSmile is a website operated by Amazon that lets customers enjoy
the same wide selection of products, low prices, and convenient shopping
features as on Amazon.com. The difference is that when you shop on
AmazonSmile (smile.amazon.com), the AmazonSmile Foundation will
donate 0.5% of the price of eligible purchases to the charitable
organizations selected by customers. Shop AmazonSmile and select WPI!
