Team Tanzania

David Suess, founder of Purified by Fire, is working on a collborative effort to assist albino African children in Tanzania. As you’ll read ahead, please consider donating to this cause. The expedition to Tanzania to assist the children will begin in June of 2019. 

Children who are born albino are in serious danger of being killed since local miners consider their body parts to bring them luck in the search for minerals. They will take albino children to a witch doctor and carve them into small pieces for use in the incantations.

Children who were brought here are provided with room, board and security 10 months of the year, with transportation back to their homes twice a year for a period of one month each time. The sisters maintain regular contact with the families during the time the children are at home to ensure they are remaining safe during their time away. Returning home is stressful to the children because they know about the danger.  You can help support the Providence Sisters who take care of the children by clicking the linke below and donating to the GoFundMe page that has been set up.
