We are Newo, (pronounced NAY-wo), a non-profit social enterprise that strives to be a deeply intentional organization.

We’re interested in wide-ranging outcomes: training workers with barriers to employment, promoting respectful relations through reconciliation, and blazing a trail to a society that helps the people and places within it thrive.

Our services include solar-PV design and installation, energy audits and skills training; we are also piloting pay-it-forward financing models.

Founded under the guidance of Cree Elders, our mission is to share abundance (wêyôtan) through harmonious relationships (wahkohtowin), and these foundational Cree principles guide our business practices.
