How Easy It Can Be To Save the World with Leila Janah

Mar 9, 2015

 

Leila Janah is a social entrepreneur and the founder of the Sama Group. The concept of “sama,” the root word for equality or fairness in many languages, is the guiding principle behind the Sama Group. The first of these is Samasource, a non-profit that connects women and youth living in poverty to microwork — computer-based tasks that build skills and generate life-changing income, now part of the broader field of impact sourcing. Samasource has moved 20,000 people over the poverty line and spun out a domestic program, SamaUSA. In 2011, Janah co-founded Samahope, a crowdfunding site for medical treatments in developing countries.
