Your support funds the essentials
Our structure is managed by committed volunteers. Whether through the donation of an SPF 50 cream, as a medical volunteer in the provinces, or through a simple worldwide message of hope, you make a real difference.
Actively support life and education in Benin
Every direct donation or targeted sponsorship provides albino children with the essential: SPF 50+ sunscreen bottles, wraparound UV glasses and adapted learning tools.
Beninese pupils followed medically and schooled with success this season.
Life protected from the sun
Sunscreen SPF 50+ distribution campaign at the deaf and albino school in Porto-Novo.
100% of creams meeting strict pediatric dermatology standards.
Why your support is indispensable in Benin
Without a structured approach, students affected by albinism face formidable health and educational barriers.
Melanomas & Burns
The absence of melanin exposes skin to severe damage from an early age, leading to cancers that can be prevented with simple SPF 50+ protection.
Severe Low Vision
Albinism is accompanied by strabismus and very low visual acuity, marginalizing students without adapted magnifiers or notebooks.
Social Exclusion
A lack of information breeds outdated prejudices, limiting social development and job access for young adults.
Product Shortage
Medical-grade sunscreens are virtually impossible to find locally, or imported at exorbitant rates for vulnerable families.
Our integrated intervention strategy
We activate three interconnected key levers to ensure health and break taboos.
Permanent Medical Support
Scheduled distribution of certified pediatric SPF 50+ sunscreen bottles and organization of quarterly skin screening consultations.
Educational Inclusion Activated
Provision of high-quality UV-filtering sunglasses, ergonomic reading magnifiers, large-print notebooks, and wide-brimmed hats.
Community Awareness
Direct awareness training for teachers, parents, and the general public to bust the myths surrounding albinism in Benin.
The journey of your support
From general fundraising to applying sunscreen on the student in the classroom.
Receipt & Tracking
Financial donations and sunscreen shipments are centralized in Benin, cataloged, and recorded in a publicly accessible inventory.
Dermatological Audit
A volunteer dermatologist analyzes the clinical suitability of received sunscreens (SPF 50+ compliance, absence of allergen perfumes, etc.).
School Delivery
Our coordinators physically transport stocks to identified schools and relay dispensaries in Porto-Novo, Cotonou, and the North.
Sponsor Notifications
Each child receives named allocations registered in their health book, and follow-up images are sent to the contributors.
