Essential Services

For some families, the barriers to a better life begin long before they can think about income or education. They begin with not having enough food, not being able to afford sunscreen, not having a phone to stay connected, or not having the means to travel to a clinic.

Open Hands Africa provides essential support to the most vulnerable families in our programs — covering groceries, sunscreen, transport costs, and phones. These are not extras. For people with albinism living in significant poverty, they are the building blocks that make everything else possible.
