Daniel Schaefer, Founder

Daniel is a writer, educator, and the founder of Invested Citizens. Daniel attended Stanford University where he studied history, religion, and women’s basketball. Infected by the dot-com bug and having seen the power of the internet to change lives and transform the world, he did the most logical thing and went to the woods of Virginia to chop wood, build tents, and help teenagers get their lives back on track. After leaving Virginia, Daniel spent time working at Thurgood Marshall Academy, AVODAH: The Jewish Service Corps, and as a fellow at the PresenTense Institute in Jerusalem.
