Meet Evelyn Omollo, a computer instructor and Head of Training at our Kang’aru Digital Hub. Evelyn plays a key role in advancing our #mission: equipping students, teachers, and young people with the #digital skills they need to thrive in today’s world. The Kang’aru Digital Hub — once a small traditional library — was recently transformed into a modern computer lab. What started as a space for just 15 learners can now accommodate over 100 students at a time, providing hands-on access to computers and digital learning. In just a few months, Evelyn has helped train more than 600 students from nearby schools, including learners with disabilities — ensuring that no one is left behind in the digital age. Because when you give people the right tools, they can shape their own future. Read more: https://lnkd.in/ezKpaZBv
