Annual KPN & BFT Special Easter Publication (Promotion of Tourism)

Since 2020, the network has collaborated with the Business and Financial Times (B & FT) Newspaper to promote, project and position Kwahu as a tourism destination of choice. The collaboration leverages the tremendous socio-economic opportunities that the Easter celebration (synonymous with Kwahu) brings to Kwahu by highlighting its unique and spectacular offerings in terms of its rich traditions, architecture, excellence and industriousness of its natives and its breathtaking tourism destinations.

Therefore, a special edition of the newspaper publication, which captures everything Kwahu, is issued both in print and online.

KPN Giveback

The GiveBack initiative is a health and philanthropic initiative that enables members of the network to give back to our kinsmen. It has been running since 2019 and provides free medical care, free drugs, health education, donation of drugs to medical facilities and other health-related interventions for the less privileged in various Kwahu towns.

It has benefitted thousands of our kinsmen over the years and has expanded in reach year on year. Kwahu-owned businesses and organisations from corporate Ghana also support the initiative each year.

Yenko Kwahu

A Kwahu tourism promotion initiative by KPN that seeks to connect network members and all people of Kwahu descent to their roots through exploration and visits to the unique tourism sites in Kwahu. It is also aimed at highlighting the tourism potential of Kwahu, increasing patronage of the sites and generally boosting the tourism ecosystem in Kwahu. It is held annually and normally held in collaboration with the Ghana Tourism Authority.
