Hand of Africa Foundation

Hands for Africa Foundation is currently involved in the following projects:

• Education Support
• Tanzania Albino Centre
• Africa Travel Connection

Stichting Afrikaanse Albino in the Netherlands: already involved in Malawi and other west African countries, is our main partner in a project to establish a sun-block (sun cream) production factory that will initially produce sun cream for albinos in the Moshi, Kilimanjaro, and Arusha region. It is hoped that this factory, the first project of its kind not only in Tanzania but also in East Africa, will eventually produce sun cream for thousands of albinos throughout the country. While Stichting Afrikaanse Albino will provide TAC with the staff and training needed to produce the sun cream, TAC is currently seeking additional partners to build the factory.

Cordaid: in the Netherlands provide fund for education for 38 albino in Moshi Kilimanjaro. Many albino wish to continue with education. In Tanzania for example there is two year secondary school program which allow those who didn’t have that privilege and adult to accomplish their education. We are still seeking partner to support many albino as we can. The outcome of this project will enable the albinos to find payable jobs, or establish their own business in future, and to retain respect from the community where they live, instead of being beggars.
