PERSONS WITH ALBINISM - Community Financial Support

By advancing the correct information about the genetic differences and not continuing the falsehoods about a “white father” or slang quotes of the “white goat” or similar ignorant misconceptions, we are hoping that lives will improve by 1) elimination of discrimination, 2) increased human rights and legal protection 3) classification of those afflicted with Albinism with disabilities for medical attention for vision and skin cancer care 4) improved security against the secretive disgusting Witch Craft practices prescribing Albino Limbs in “brews” for political or financial gains as believed among the ignorant and greedy people, especially the politicians in these two countries.

To meet Jayne is to immediately love her! Her fun, amicable personality and positive outlook on life is truly inspirational. Jayne possess an uncanny sense of understanding and empathy for her constituents and all surrounding her. Jayne possesses wonderful people skills and she is a heroic role model for women’s empowerment. Jayne has many successes under her belt; however, this is just the beginning for Jayne. Jayne spent her youth educating herself as much as possible, immersing herself with International Youth Leadership and Entrepreneurial Programs and has been in numerous documentaries. Jayne was even fortunate and determined enough that she met and had a dialogue with USA President Barak Obama regarding the Albinism situation in Eastern Africa.

Jayne is the Co-Founder of Positive Exposure, (web site under construction) a non-profit organization dedicated to the Respectful help and confidence building for the Peoples with Albinism in Kenya and Tanzania. Until our recent partnering with Jayne, she had been financially unable to push this personal mission and this important agenda in Kenya as far as needed.

Jayne was abandoned at birth by her mother, who could not accept her Albinism and discrimination within their small village. Fortunately for Jayne, her grandmother accepted Jayne as her own and raised Jayne to become the wonderfully giving woman she is today. Possessing Albinism herself and knowing the issues facing her and her community, Jayne dedicated her life towards the advancement of Persons with Albinism. Accordingly, Jayne has spent a number of years working with the leading NGO in the field of Albinism, called Under the Same Sun based in Tanzania. Her efforts, knowledge and successes in Tanzania along with her recommendation by representatives of Under the Same Sun, were instrumental with our forming a partnership with Jayne at the Inti Raymi Fund.

With this new partnership, Jayne can build upon the synergies with Under the Same Sun and Jayne’s newly formed NGO called Positive Exposure based in Kenya. Both organizations are pursuing the same goals of emotionally, physically, legally, educationally supporting persons with Albinism to advance their human rights for a more fair and just society with everyone living in equality and safety.

We feel very confident in Jayne’s ability to further the advancements for Persons with Albinism in Kenya. We look forward to the release of Elia’s Documentary including many participants locally in Kenya and Tanzania, and most importantly…Jayne.

We encourage you to research and connect directly with Jayne at Positive Exposure along with her counterparts in Tanzania, with Under the Same Sun. If you feel compelled, please visit either or both of these fantastic causes to lend your time, talents, passion or financial support directly towards these beautiful people with their unique and difficult battle ahead.
