VOX Spotlights German Couple Shielding Tanzanian Teen With Albinism as Donation Funds Safe Schooling

The broadcast captures a family balancing medical needs in Germany with uncertain immigration status.

Overview

  • The episode follows Janine Hundt’s trip back to Tanzania to continue aid work and to meet husband Attu Mwambona, who has a three‑month visitor visa to Germany with his longer‑term status unresolved.
  • Hundt and Mwambona describe lethal persecution facing people with albinism in parts of Tanzania, driven by entrenched witchcraft beliefs and trafficking of body parts.
  • They intervened to protect 14‑year‑old Yunge, who reported abuse by relatives, and secured a donation enabling her placement at a boarding school for children with albinism.
  • The couple visited a poor family to support a three‑year‑old boy named Wish, delivering toys and sunscreen and offering encouragement.
  • Hundt checked on a Fly & Help school project in Kisaki, where the lack of electricity—and therefore water from a pump—remains unresolved and requires attention.
