Helpful Organization

Meet Leila Chirayath Janah, the founder of Samasource (sama means “equal” in Sanskrit).

Samasource is an organization that outsources simple data-entry and media-tagging tasks for companies like Google to people in low-income countries. Since 2008, Samasource has hired more than 1,200 workers, but “my dream is to show that we can become a $100 million organization with tens of thousands of workers. And do it as a nonprofit.”

Great Job, Leila!
