VuTech’s Story Begins in Haiti.
VuTech was first established in 2014 by Benjamin “Brik” Kraft. Brik’s VuTech was a full-service engineering company providing design, installation, and technical support services in Haiti. It specialized in energy, lighting, and communications systems and prided itself on work ethic and client relationships. It sought to help individuals grow professionally. Before this as a graduate of North Carolina A&T State University in Electrical Engineering Brik worked with various organizations.
VuTech Today.
Brik was our son, brother, nephew, cousin, godfather, and friend. When we lost him, we decided to harness his core vision of service to community. Today’s VuTech seeks to help and grow, strengthen the community by teaching, coaching, and supporting children, parents, families, and communities.
With Brik as our guiding light, we seek to change the world by changing one person, family, and community at a time.
