The brand
Every product here exists because somebody needed it and could not find it.
Most sun protection on the shelf is designed for tourists on holiday, not for a person who needs a wide brim every single day of their life. It is priced accordingly, and it looks like medical equipment.
SunWise+ is the answer to that: functional protection with UPF and UV400 ratings that mean something, made to be worn daily and priced so it can be. Profit goes back into Black Albinism's programmes, and every purchase supports the access fund that puts the same products into the hands of people who cannot pay for them.

The person who needs this most is the person least able to buy it.
At checkout you can add a second item that goes to the access fund, a hat, a pair of sunglasses or a bottle of sunscreen distributed through UVSafe to someone who cannot afford one. Same product, no markup, no ceremony.
About SunWise+
A shop owned by the people it protects.
SunWise+ is run by Black Albinism as part of our economic empowerment work. It creates income for members, funds our programmes, and puts protection within reach. It is not a gift shop attached to a charity, it is a business with a job to do.
