The Library will serve as a dynamic learning hub, providing access to books, technology, and training resources. The ground floor will house a well-stocked library with a dedicated children’s section to foster a love for reading. Upstairs, a state-of-the-art computer lab will offer desktops, e-books, Kindles, and other digital tools to enhance education and leadership development. By integrating technology and literacy, the Library aims to empower young learners and drive lasting community change
Additionally, the first floor will feature a conference center dedicated to training pastors and supporting discipleship programs. By leveraging Skype, Zoom, Teams, What’s app and other digital platforms, we can provide remote training sessions, eliminating the need for costly travel and making education and mentorship more accessible.

Bar Odar Special School, established in 2016, has grown from just seven students to over 100 students those with intellectual and physical disabilities. Forty students currently reside in the school’s dormitories. Under the leadership of Madam Anne Otieno, the school strives to provide quality education and care in a safe environment.
Lanterns for Light Foundation has supported the school since its inception, funding the construction of two dormitories, five classrooms, a dining room, and a staff room. With the recent purchase of a two-hectare plot by Praytube partners, we are now planning the school’s expansion to accommodate even more students in need. Let’s team up together to provide the special needs children a special place to thrive.
Thanks to the generosity of our partners and supporters, we have made significant progress in improving the lives of children at Bar Odar Special School:
Attendance rates – More children stay in school consistently
Academic performance – Better concentration and engagement
Health and well-being – Reduced cases of malnutrition and vulnerability to diseases
Education breaks the cycle of poverty, and no child should have to learn on an empty stomach.
Together, we can empower these children and help them reach their full potential.
