EWB is Non- profit organization that partners with developing communities to improve quality of life of the people.

The group is in Ghana specifically to construct a Solar Power System in Obrachire Senior High School, in the Awutu Senya West constituency. Obrachire is the second community in Ghana to receive such intervention from EWB.

The solar system when completed will support the power needs of the school, including the unique cooking system at the schools pantry and also to have constant supply of power.

The project seeks to train local volunteers to acquire knowledge in the solar system installation, and to ensure the power system will be maintained to serve its purpose.

The facility when commenced will be commissioned and handed over within a week.

The MP, George Andah says he’s “happy that I am able to partner EWB to bring this facility to Obrachire and hopefully the success of this project will give reason for other communities to benefit from the partnership with EWB.’’

He therefore called on the beneficiary community to adopt a maintenance culture, for the sustenance of power supply from the facility.
