Project Kushea

The Kushea Community Partnership is the perfect example of what happens when like-minded people come together with good intent. A partnership created out of our connection and collaboration with Point Innovate, King Nana Pra and Goal Zero. The goal of Project Kushea is to provide sustainable power for the community so individuals, families, and businesses can finally provide for themselves.

Our partner, Point Innovate is a sales and distribution business that creates high-impact social projects in the area, their strong relationship with the local King was essential in creating a long-term relationship that would allow for a single vision. King Nana Pra has been the ideal leader to work with. He invests his own wealth into the projects, but it is his passion for education and the success of the community that is truly inspiring.

Here are some of the projects currently in Kushea:

The Health Clinic – With Goal Zero solar generators and panels this clinic has now turned into a viable community resource.

The Police Station – What was once before a small, windowless, and doorless building that served as the police station is now a central community building where safety and civic pride can begin to blossom after a few improvements along with solar power and light.

The community technology center – This project is the most impactful install so far, the center will serve five local schools and communities, providing access to technology including digital media, books, educational content and the internet.

Cocoa Farmers Empowered – light and power was provided to the cocoa farmers, allowing for increased production.
