- Samasource abstract "Samasource is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to alleviate worldwide poverty by connecting unemployed women and youth in impoverished countries to digital work. One of the first organizations to engage in impact sourcing, Samasource uses a proprietary internet-based model called “microwork” to break down large-scale digital projects from clients into smaller tasks for workers to complete. These workers are trained in basic computer skills and paid a fair wage (as determined by the Fair Wage Guide) for their labor.Samasource is headquartered in San Francisco, California and maintains a field office in Nairobi, Kenya. The organization currently partners with 10 delivery centers across Haiti, India, Kenya, and Uganda, and has previously paid workers in Pakistan, Ghana, and South Africa. As of April, 2013, the organization had impacted 14,100 workers and their dependents in these countries by paying them over $3 million in wages.The prefix “Sama” in the title of the organization and that of its proprietary products, services, and programs is a Sanskrit word, meaning “equal”. Janah has stated that her organization’s name “refers to leveling the playing field.”".
