He is also the Country Director (voluntary) of oneVillage Foundation-Ghana; a branch of an international NGOs based in the US .His focus areas include Linux/Open Source and  ICTs for Development (ICT4D) especially in the areas Education, Health, Cultural Preservation and Peace Building.

His leadership of OVF Ghana has led to several notable accomplishments. He designed the: 

1. Sports People That Care Program – which provides care and support for People Living HIV/AIDS and children orphaned by AIDS through sports.

2. Catch IT Young - low cost ICT Education program that involved pre-tertiary schools in Southern Ghana using ICT professionals as volunteers

3. Winneba Open Digital Village (WODiV) – Open Digital Villages (ODiVs): are community focused development initiatives, driven by a combination of Open Source, Open Hardware and Wireless Technologies and geared to promote community oriented sustainable development.  Kafui is now focusing his efforts on implementating this project.

Background: WODiV is the culmination of processes and ideas that began at the ITU Africa 2001 forum where he represented Ghana as the ICT Youth Ambassador. In September 2005, the Winneba Linux User Group (WiLUG) was formed as a community and youth group promoting Open Source for Educational Development in Africa and to provide a incubation process for participation in the growth of the ODiVs in Africa. The recent Air Jaldi Wireless Summit from Oct 22 to Nov 6, 2006 - which I attended- included a series of wireless technology workshops that helped to plan for the implementation of the WODiV to be deployed as part of the World Summits on Free Information Infrastructure - WSFII Africa 2008 and 10-day Wireless Roadshow which will be hosted at the University in Winneba, Ghana and the Winneba Open Digital Village respectively. 

Outlook: WODiV will be the first of many ODiVs to be deployed as part of a long term strategy to develop Multipurpose Community & Unity Centres as sustainable business incubators in emerging markets.
