Airtel Money Invests KSh 12.7 Million in Classrooms, ICT and Water Facilities at Garissa School for the Deaf
Airtel Money Kenya, through the Airtel Africa Foundation, has partnered with ChildFund Kenya to launch a KSh 12.7 million infrastructure project at Garissa School for the Deaf aimed at improving access to inclusive education and digital learning opportunities. The project, implemented under the Building Brighter Futures initiative, will see the construction of four new classrooms to accommodate the school’s growing student population and an ICT centre to equip learners with digital skills. The investment will also support improvements in water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) facilities, creating a safer and more conducive learning environment for children with hearing impairments. The planned facilities include separate toilet and bathroom blocks for boys and girls, an extension of the school’s water pipeline, and an elevated water tower fitted with a 20,000-litre storage tank. A 20-point handwashing station will also be installed to promote hygiene, alongside a separate two-door sanitation facility for teachers.…
