Connections: Humans for Education

There are more than 1.5 million charitable organizations in the United States. Thousands are formed each year. So how is a small organization, formed in Rochester and focused on helping kids in Kenya, going to survive?

We sit down with the ambitious Daphne Pariser, who believes she has the unusual formula for launching an international effort and making it thrive. Humans for Educationis growing, and is aiming to build a healthcare clinic that can serve 2,000 Kenyan families. We talk about how she's trying to get it done.
