About Us
Under the Same Sun
(UTSS) is a Christian charitable organization committed to ending the deadly
discrimination against people with albinism (also referred to as “albinos”) around
the world, and particularly in Africa. Albinism is a genetic condition that
results in a lack of pigmentation in the hair, skin and eyes, causing visual
impairment and vulnerability to sun exposure. UTSS promotes, via advocacy and
education, the wellbeing of persons with albinism who in many parts of the
world are misunderstood, marginalized, attacked and even killed.
