The Kilimanjaro Blind Trust aims to improve the lives of blind and visually impaired children in Tanzania, Uganda, and Kenya through projects aimed entirely at improving their literacy and therefore their level of education.
By improving literacy, our hope is that more blind and visually impaired children will eventually achieve higher job placement rates and improve their ability to integrate and increase their independence.
The cornerstones of our activities are:
Brailler Repair Program
Providing new Braille machines
University Brailler Loaner Program
Teacher Training
All activities are carried out In conjunction with Perkins School for the Blind.
