Leila Janah, a dynamic social entrepreneur, recounts her journey in founding a groundbreaking non-profit startup. With a commitment to addressing the needs of the world's poorest, she established Samasource, believing that providing dignified work is crucial in the fight against poverty. Recognized by Fast Company as one of the 50 Most Innovative Companies in 2016, Samasource trains individuals in communities lacking living-wage jobs—from Sierra Leone's refugee camps to rural Arkansas—to perform digital tasks that enhance technology, such as improving Google's search algorithms. By partnering with leading Silicon Valley firms, Janah effectively connects the nonprofit sector with tech and private industries, enabling the impoverished to achieve economic independence. The steady income from jobs with companies like Google and Microsoft empowers individuals to improve their living conditions, pursue education, and support their families. This transformative approach offers dignity and self-sufficiency, contrasting sharply with traditional aid methods. Drawing from her experiences across the globe, including a school for the blind in Ghana and the World Bank, Janah combines her entrepreneurial spirit with insightful narratives of those impacted by Samasource. Her work serves as a guide for aspiring social entrepreneurs.
