Letting the Science Speak
There are several hundred peer-reviewed scientific publications published over the last 7 decades by leading research scientists, and public health agencies that have confirmed that thimerosal is a potent neurotoxin.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. published a book, Thimerosal: Let the Science Speak that summarizes these scientific publications which confirm that thimerosal has never been proven safe for use and that cost-effective alternatives exist. It is beyond time for the use of mercury in medicine to finally end.

It's time to get it out of our pharmaceuticals.

Educating Families
Goals
We will conduct public outreach to educate families regarding harm associated with exposure to mercury in our medicines. This outreach will also include efforts to correct some of the misinformation perpetuated by the media and our federal agencies that mercury has been removed from vaccines except in “trace amounts,” mercury in vaccines is not harmful and does not accumulate in the body.
Use of Funds
- Publishing numerous articles through social media and our website.
- Investing in writing, editing, publication and infrastructure for educational content.
Educating Congress
Goals
Congressional briefing and meetings in an effort to educate Congress on the need to provide oversight and recommendations to our federal agencies regarding the unnecessary and dangerous use of mercury in our medicines.
Use of Funds
- Travel and setup for Congressional briefings
- Development and printing of educational materials
- Staffing phones to ensure maximum attendance by members of Congress
Educating the Media
Goals
Encouraging and informing the media to cover the dangers of mercury in medical products with balanced and accurate reporting.
Use of Funds
- Sponsored press conference at National Press Club
- Live satellite media tour with Robert De Niro and Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.
Grassroots Action
We are using Indiegogo as a platform to help our supporters be a part of the change. This allows us to raise funds for our goal and assemble a team of devoted advocates at the same time.

FAQs
How much of the raise will go towards the cause?
Indiegogo and credit card processors charge a small percentage of donation transactions. Apart from these service charges, fully 100% of the campaign raise will go towards our efforts to eliminate mercury from medical products.
How do I get a tax-deductible receipt?
As the World Mercury Project is a 501(c)(3) Charitable Organization, your donations are tax-deductible.
When you make a contribution, you will receive an email confirmation of your donation from Indiegogo. Tax receipts will be provided to all backers by the World Mercury Project financial team after the completion of the campaign.
Why doesn't Indiegogo list your campaign listed as a Verified Nonprofit?
Indiegogo automatically adds a "verified nonprofit" banner to the top of campaigns that register through their nonprofit funding processor, FirstGiving. However, Indiegogo is moving to a new payment processor on March 1st, right in the middle of our campaign. If we had registered with FirstGiving, our campaign would have to end as soon as their partnership ended.
While we don't have the "verified nonprofit" banner for this reason, since World Mercury Project is a registered 501(c)(3) Charitable Organization, donations are still tax-deductible - see the FAQ above.
If celebrities and major donors are already supporting, why should I help?
All of our budget is not covered by major donors. World Mercury Project depends on the generous donations from everyone interested in stopping the use of mercury in all medical products and vaccines.
I have more questions. Whom do I ask?
We'll be happy to answer any questions you have about our campaign. You can reach us at indiegogo@worldmercuryproject.org
