ALIN Partners With the Church



By Soila Munyaka

Following a partnership between ALIN and the ACK Diocese of Kajiado, in mid last year, Isinya Maarifa Centre has since been moved to St. Patrick’s church compound.

More people are going to benefit since it is more accessible compared to its former premises at the MRTC. The church is also planning to establish an all-round Educational Centre, and this move is quite convenient.

The services that were being offered for free at the Maarifa Centre are now being offered at a low fee. They include library and internet services, and also computer services including training.

The future is quite bright for the residents of Isinya, with formation of linkages to create a fully-fledged information Centre. Plans are underway to bring more partners on board, who include the Kenya Library Services, Practical Action and some Government Ministries; to provide the necessary information materials for the community.

All these activities seek to have an empowered community of Isinya and beyond, because information is power.
