Kivuli Sunscreen
To address the root cause of skin disorders that affect people with albinism, we decided as an organisation to focus on the production and distribution of sunscreens and related products locally.
Kivuli™ is our in-house sunscreen specifically designed for people living with albinism in Sub-Saharan Africa. Kivuli is distributed free of charge, directly by us or through our several partners/sponsors, to less privileged people living with albinism.
The commercial version of the Kivuli sunscreen is also available in pharmacies and all proceeds of the sales are channelled to produce free sunscreens for donations.
Kivuli Sunscreen Features
MINERAL BASED
Made from Zinc Oxide and Titanium dioxide as the active sun-protection ingridient, which works on top of the skin, making it especially safe for people with albinism
MORE THAN SUNSCREEN
Packed with anti-bacterial and anti-oxidants, the sunscreen is designed to heal and moisturize the skin and prevent premature skin ageing caused by the sun
BROAD BASE SPF
Formulated to protect against both UVA and UVB sun rays in sub-Saharan climatic conditions.
CREAM AND LOTION
Kivuli comes either as a cream or a lotion depending on beneficiary’s needs and season of the year.
LOCALLY MADE
The sunscreen is locally manufactured to reduce the costs of production and distribution, making it possible to make regular donations of the sunscreen to beneficiaries.
SPF 50
High SPF ensures the sunscreen works for longer in protecting the skin from the harsh sun which characterizes the African climate.
Get Involved
You can help our cause through buying from us our locally manufactured sunscreen, Kivuli, and donating it to beneficiaries of your choice. We also maintain a database of registered beneficiaries which you can use to donate the sunscreen you purchase from us. Each and every donation made, saves a beneficiary from potentially developing skin cancer.
