Project 042 Lambwe Christian School for the Deaf, Kenya by Yorke Rodda
Location
The school is located in a very remote small village called Ogongo
in the Kenyan province of Nyanza to the far west of the country. The road
from Homa Bay to Mbita goes through Ogongo, a small village about 17 km
from Homa Bay. There is no electricity, no telephones and no running water.
Lake Victoria is about 5 km north of the Village.
None of the staff own a car but there are irregular buses (Matatus) that pass through the village. The closest large town is Homa Bay. It has hotels, banks, shops and some government offices. Kisumu, about 140 km away, (3 hours+ on poor roads) has a port on Lake Victoria and an airport that links it to Nairobi.
