very good point - I imagine though that it's MAINLY to get attention from groups that would donate to such a cause... The more niche the demographic the easier it is to raise money from institutes who aim to help those demos. So short answer, money probably... We can look at a silver lining and hope they expand into other demos, we will see i guess.

and the problem with this is that the groups have a conflict of interest, if they do solve the problem that they are addressing then no one will continue to fund them. So the only way that they can stay in business is to make sure that the problem isn't solved, gets worse or is seen to get worse.
