Our vision is to inspire and encourage children with disabilities to realize their highest potential and access equal opportunities in Kenya.
A partner and support system for children with disabilities looking to change their lives in southwestern rural Kenya.
We focus on three key pillars - Education, Advocacy, and Community for an improved quality of life for those with disabilities.
We aim to build a thriving community of children who have been otherwise left behind to increase opportunity, resources, education, and to provide hope.
With our kitchen project complete, we need to make space for more students, more classrooms, and more opportunities! We have been offered the land next to the school, which can be paid for in installments. With this land, we will be able to expand the school and add more classrooms, a science lab, and room for students to continue up to ninth grade!
TOTAL COST $20,000
Through grant funding, the B.L. Tezza School for the Deaf has built two new classrooms. One of these classrooms will be a dual-purpose science laboratory and classroom for grades 6 through 9. Our students have never had the opportunity of a science lab. Students and staff currently need to walk 1.5 miles to another school to complete these lessons. Please help us complete this project.
TOTAL COST: $4,000
The B.L. Tezza School for the Deaf serves over 75 children in their rural community. However, not all children we meet can come to our school due to various needs. Through our scholarship program, we give children the opportunity to go to school in a setting that is appropriate for them. This helps children learn both academic and vocational skills to better their future.
TOTAL COST $2,500
