Donate NowKey Impact Summary Since opening in August 2025, the inABLE Isinya Digital Hub has expanded access to inclusive digital learning in Kajiado County. Through accessible devices, structured ICT and coding training, teacher support, and dedicated opportunities for persons with disabilities, the Hub is helping learners, young people, and adults build practical digital skills, confidence, and independence for education, employment, and community participation. To date, the Hub has reached 2,173 beneficiaries, including 388 learners currently enrolled in the school-based program.
Thika Primary School for the Blind and Thika Senior School for the Blind are located in Thika Town, Kiambu County. The primary school was established in 1946 by the Salvation Army to support people who had lost their sight during World War II, while the senior school was established in 1967 to provide academic progression for learners with visual impairments.
Since 2014, inABLE has partnered with St. Lucy’s Primary School for the Blind in Igoji, Meru County, to expand access to inclusive digital education for learners who are blind or have low vision. In February 2024, the program expanded to St. Lucy Senior School for the Visually Impaired, extending assistive technology and digital skills training to older learners preparing for higher education, employment, entrepreneurship, and independent participation in an increasingly digital world. Together, the two programs have reached more than 2,700 learners, including 262 who are currently enrolled.
For Mr. Sammy Kiranga Eshumira, Senior Teacher at The Salvation Army Likoni School for the Visually Impaired, technology was once something he resisted. Today, his Chromebook is an essential part of how he teaches, leads and serves his community. As a teacher employed by the Teachers Service Commission (TSC), Sammy had initially viewed information and communication technology (ICT) with deep skepticism. He believed that computers threatened the role of Braille and would ultimately replace a tool that had been central to the education of students who are blind.
