Mabati Rolling Mills Ltd (MRM), through the Safal
MRM Foundation, today officially handed over a newly constructed classroom block at
Nyanjoro Primary School in Nyahururu.
The project underscores MRM’s dedication to
expanding access to quality education and improving learning environments across Kenya.
The newly built block will provide a safe, dignified, and conducive learning environment for
both pupils and teachers—enhancing focus, participation, and educational outcomes.
Speaking during the handover, MRM CEO Albert Sigei explained: “Originally approached to
support roofing repairs, a site assessment revealed that the existing structures could not
safely support new roofing. Prioritizing learner safety and long-term impact, we expanded our
intervention from repair to the construction of a complete, modern classroom block.”
The Safal MRM Foundation drives our social investment initiatives, focusing on sustainable
community empowerment aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals
(SDGs). Our ongoing school project in Nyahururu reflects this commitment—a direct
investment in the community where we live and operate.
This initiative goes beyond philanthropy. It underscores our belief that our responsibility
extends beyond manufacturing to actively building stronger, more resilient communities.
Guided by our CSI pillars of Education and Shelter, we are investing in sustainable futures—
providing both the materials for secure shelters and the educational foundation for brighter
tomorrows.
“This project aligns with MRM’s Education Pillar and contributes directly to SDG 4—ensuring
inclusive, equitable quality education and lifelong learning for all,” added Sigei. “It addresses
the critical infrastructure challenges that once hindered daily learning for pupils and
teachers.”
The Headteacher of Nyanjoro Primary School expressed gratitude: “We are deeply thankful
to MRM and the Safal MRM Foundation for this transformative support. These new
classrooms will enable effective teaching and provide secure, engaging spaces for our
students and staff.”
The handover ceremony was attended by the Sub-County Education Officer, education
authorities, community development partners, NGOs, parents, and local leaders.
