Elimu angels humble hearts school for the deaf
Humble Hearts School, Kenya's first bilingual school schools for the deaf using Kenyan Sign Language and English, was started by Beatrice Anunda on 9 September 2003.

Anunda was taught Kenyan Sign Language (in the University of Nairobi's KSL Research Project), and came across a nine-year-old deaf child called Melinda in Doonholm.
The school is based in Sinai (Paradise), a large slum by Doonholm, a middle-class suburb of Nairobi. Lately, the school, was bulldozed "accidentally" by the government. They are now trying to rebuild it, but the government will not give them a compensation fee.
Humble Hearts has a "sister school", Trillium Charter School, located in Portland, Oregon, United States.
