Exxaro Resources, in partnership with the Emalahleni Local Municipality's Transversal Unit, commemorated International Albinism Awareness Day 2025 with a special outreach programme held at the Emalahleni Local Municipality council chamber.
This year's global theme, 'Demanding our Rights: Protect our Skin, Preserve our Lives,' set the tone for a meaningful day of advocacy and support.
The event on June 13, brought together Exxaro staff, municipal officials, and eMalahleni residents living with albinism, highlighting the importance of inclusion and community care.
Essential health items such as sunscreen lotions, lip balms, and sun-protective hats were distributed to participants, items that are not only practical but vital to their health and safety.
'Albinism is beautiful, let's spread awareness,' was the uplifting message that echoed throughout the chamber, reinforcing the purpose of the day: Dignity, safety, and visibility for those living with albinism.
