Daniel McSwain

Chair of the Board of Directors @Project Mañana International

Simi Valley, CA, US

In his current, volunteer, role with Project Mañana, Daniel serves as the Board Chairman, a position the Board of Directors has repeatedly (and unanimously) re-affirmed him for since Project Mañana’s formation in 2010.Project Mañana is an international, Christian 501(c)(3) nonprofit that exists to share the gospel and help break the cycle of poverty by investing in impoverished children, their families and communities through clean water, nutrition, education, and discipling projects.We achieve our goals through charitable donations and child sponsorship, which unites children in need with individual sponsors who wish to address the child\'s immediate and basic needs. Sponsorship gives poor children the tools and opportunities necessary for success by providing benefits and supporting programs for each child - primarily in the areas of nutrition and education.Today, Project Mañana has grown to one of the largest evangelical ministries in the Dominican Republic with a staff of 50 people (7 Americans and 43 Dominicans), community development efforts in two of the poorest communities in the country, and a mentorship institute currently operating in 15 maximum-security prisons (13 men’s and 2 women’s). Project Mañana currently provides 330 children with a nutritious meal (5-days per week), a private elementary education for 119 children, and a university scholarship and mentorship program for 7 students.The success that Project Mañana is blessed to have comes as a direct result of Daniel’s faithful Board leadership, wise counsel, motivation, and encouragement. He understands what it means to develop advocates and empower champions from the Board of Directors, to executive leadership, to staff at all levels.
