Hands Around the World have been partnering with St Lucy’s Primary and Secondary Schools for the Blind, in Igoji, Meru County, Kenya since December 2024. The schools provide safe havens for 309 visually impaired students and are more than just learning spaces – they strive to create an environment that empowers, nurtures, and inspires the students, not just academically but emotionally and socially.
Earlier this year, we were able to buy them new musical instruments to further strengthen their music department. Here they are, performing a song of thanks.
Could you help?
In Kenya, only one in six disabled children attends school. Your donation would help provide education, resources, and support to children in Meru County, while also challenging stigma and promoting dignity and respect for vulnerable children and their families.
