Bombolulu Workshops envisions “a Kenyan community where people with disabilities are economically and socially empowered, self-reliant, and fully integrated members of their communities.”
Summary
Bombolulu Workshops was founded in 1969 as a branch of the Association for the Physically Disabled of Kenya Coast Branch.
Bombolulu employs 113 artisans in Kenya who are blind or physically disabled and who would otherwise have virtually no chance of employment in the mainstream labor market.
They manage a workshop near Mombasa, Kenya's second largest city.
Artisans benefit from housing, medical aid, adult education, and other benefits.
