Dan Kaskubar, a first-year MBA student at the University of Minnesota’s Carlson School of Management, is in rural Uganda this summer for an 8-week program offering business consulting services to a non-profit organization serving destitute children in the region. The organization is called Maranatha Uganda and it runs a network of 5 private schools in small villages surrounding Mityana, Uganda, 40 miles west of the capital city of Kampala. Dan met Patrick Walusimbi, the director if the organization, in 2005 when he traveled to Uganda to assist in building Maranatha’s primary school in a small fishing village named Nkonya. The two have an ongoing relationship and have been planning this project since January.
Dan is currently studying finance and strategic management and is applying his studies to social enterprise – business intended to provide both financial and social returns.
