Keep Annie safe. Stop the ritual murders of kids with albinism.

Annie Alfred is like any other child in Malawi. Aged 10, she wants to be a nurse when she grows up. But she may never live to realise her ambitions because of people who believe her body has magic powers.

These people think she's unhuman. They call her names like "ghost" or "money". They want to steal her hair or – worse – her bones.

Annie was born with albinism, an inherited condition that prevents her body from making enough colour. Annie, and thousands like her, are all at risk of being hunted and killed.

People like Annie have nowhere safe to go. It isn't just criminals who will kidnap them, but family members, too. They think that people with albinism are gold that can be snatched and sold.

Keep Annie safe. Demand that Malawi protect people with albinism from murder.
Your Excellency,

I urge you to protect people with albinism from murder. Attacks on them have risen steeply in Malawi since November 2014.

Annie Alfred is one of many people with albinism in the country. Along with others like her, she is under threat from those who believe that killing her for her body parts will make them rich. Prove them wrong.

Please show them that far from riches, crimes against people like Annie are met with the full weight of the law.
