"Creating a better world for families of children with albinism"
Once, the world was not safe for people with albinism. Over the generations, we have witnessed high levels of violence against people with albinism in Africa — leading to fear, trauma, and discrimination for them and their families.
✦ Let's join together our hands to create a change ✦
Our Strategies
Albinism Awareness Training
To provide specific albinism awareness training — including how to raise children with albinism — to mothers of children with albinism and their relatives. Education is the foundation of change and acceptance.

Psychosocial Support & Economic Empowerment
To provide psychosocial support to mothers facing threats, stigma, and discrimination — and to lift them out of poverty through income-generating schemes so they can become economically independent and socially confident.
Rights, Health & Education Access
To empower mothers of children with albinism and their children on how to defend their rights and access better health and education services — because every child deserves to thrive in safety and dignity.
