We believe EVERYONE in the world deserves access to the internet and affordable communications.

Communications have an incredibly positive impact on improving the lives of individuals and accelerating the economic and social growth of developing countries; yet 4.4 billion people around the world are still unconnected and many more are poorly serviced.

At poa we believe everyone deserves access to the internet and it should not be limited to the privileged few.

Our poa Internet service provides wireless broadband to low income and rural communities across East Africa, offering individuals and small businesses highly affordable Internet access.

poa brings significant social benefit to the communities we serve by offering free access to digital content including educational and health materials as well as generating substantial employment opportunities.
