Society of African Missions
The Tanga House project is run by members of the Society of African Missions (SMA) in cooperation with Polish Loreto Sisters and SMA lay missionaries. It provides a safe home for Albino children in Tanzania – who because of their condition are often stigmatised and excluded. They are sometimes killed or subjected to violence and mutilation due to a superstitious belief associated with witchcraft that albino body parts can bring wealth.
