We have a special partnership with Foundation Inside the Same, a Dutch organisation that supports people with albinism in East Africa.
The situation in Tanzania
People with albinism in Tanzania often face severe discrimination, social exclusion and even life-threatening situations due to deep-rooted superstition and misconceptions about their condition.
Foundation Inside the Same works to improve these circumstances by:
- Education and awareness: Providing education about albinism to combat myths and prejudices
- Protection: Offering safe environments and support to women and children with albinism
- Employment: Creating economic opportunities through craft projects
Our collaboration
Women with albinism make doll clothing that we sell in the Netherlands. This partnership provides them with:
- Safe workplaces where they can work from home
- Economic independence
- Pride in their craftsmanship
The proceeds from this collaboration are invested in:
- Purchasing sewing machines for better production
- Basic necessities such as food, soap and medical care
What this means for our customers
When you buy a doll with Inside the Same clothing, you receive handmade quality whilst directly contributing to improving the living conditions of women and children with albinism in Tanzania.
