Bio
Dave Reid
I had the opportunity to work with Karen that was for me a Rotary project; essentially, Karen was my liaison with her employer. I was in a land unfamiliar to me and didn't know much of the language - Karen made me very comfortable and made sure that my visit went well and that I had everything needed to do my work overseeing a large-scale humanitarian service project. I recommend Karen highly, without reservation.
Julio Benard
With no doubt one of the best people to work with, for and have projects together with. I will not hesitate to recommend her for any job application she put herself into. Two very-high thumbs up!

Knowledge Impact Network (KIN) is a global NGO that unites leaders and social entrepreneurs to share knowledge that scale social impact. Founded by YPO members and inspired by the Giving Pledge, KIN asserts that one of the greatest unrealized gift people can give to humanity is their human, not just financial capital, and that generously giving knowledge in service of people and the planet can build a brighter future for all. We offer curated opportunities for purpose-driven leaders to share their skills, insights and connections to unlock the potential of social ventures. Our focused areas of impact include supporting core human needs (food, health and well-being), making education more accessible, expanding economic opportunity for all, and mitigating climate risk. These are aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Our acronym “KIN” reflects the spirit of our work, lending support to our global family. Show less
