Airtel offers free internet to school for the blind

Airtel has connected Kambui school for the deaf to the internet for free. The seamless and effective internet connectivity to the school will enable students and teachers benefit from enormous educational information available online.

This is part of the ongoing Internet for Schools programme that seeks to provide data connectivity to schools across the country in an effort to support Kenya’s education system.

“Our initiative as a company is to make internet available and accessible to all, especially to students that are unable to afford the cost of access,” said Airtel Kenya CEO Adil El Youssefi. “As a way of development, we choose to invest in education through provision of free internet services for both able and physically challenged students.”
