Help Us Continue to Invest in Gyapa Entrepreneurs 

Picture
At Gyapa Enterprises, we have managed to reduce the same amount of carbon emissions as 224,500 passenger vehicles emit yearly. Revenue earned from carbon emissions is invested directly back into the program to support Ghanaian livelihoods and help Ghanaians live healthier lives. 

You can be a part of this process by investing in Gyapa Verified Emission Reductions (VERs).

You can offset your carbon footprint, and at the same time help us expand our business  by purchasing carbon credits direct from us. Click the links below to instantly offset your emissions and help support entrepreneurs in Ghana.
