By EMMANUEL BOAZ. Nation media group and Kenya Society for the Blind today gave goods worth Sh 35,800 meant to empower the blind. 10 brail papers, 25white canes, 1 white ball, 5 styluses were given out to the Likoni school for the visually impaired. The event was hosted at Mlaleo primary school in Kisauni. This is a program visually and partially impaired to empower the blind so that they are not left behind in the society. “You can not say that I have a visual disability I am not able to progress. You are able to go far beyond what anybody can think or imagine you just need to prove it you need to be confident in yourself we have given you the tools all we need now is for you to go out and use them and get were you are going.” said the Brand marketing executive Annie Gitau. “There are over 612000 persons with visual impairment. Lots of people in government have visual impaired cases,” said Mr Johnson Kiteto. “Hope God may provide you more and help not only the visual impaired but also those with other types of needs. And through what you have done God will help you,” said Martin Kavo from the Likoni school for the blind said as he showed his appreciation. The residents of kisauni with eye problems received treatment and those with critical conditions were taken to lions eye hospital. This is a 3 year program that has taken place in kawangware and Kariobangi North. Kisumu will be the next beneficiary of this project. Ends
