Zambia Program Implementation Internship

In 2008, our Founder, Dan Sutera, took a trip to visit rural Zambia. After 10 years of growing startup companies, two of which cracked the Inc. 500 list of fastest growing companies in America, he was looking for his next challenge.

In Zambia, he met David Seidenfeld, who had spent years doing the peace corps, PhD work, and building a school with the help of his colleague, Mike Weiss. Together, they created Impact Network, and began building more schools in rural Zambia to bring educational access to out-of-school children.

After building several schools, we realized that while the construction was impressive, the level of education being received by the hundreds of students in attendance was not. Thus, in 2010, we shifted our focus beyond the build, to create a solution that could consistently deliver high-quality education, while keeping costs to a minimum.
