SOURCE was founded in 2005 by two Claremont McKenna students, Mike Peel and Danny Hayman. After interning with non-profits, they began an experimental collaboration with two local organizations. They received generous start-up funding from the Kravis Leadership Institute and the City of Claremont and expanded SOURCE to six consulting teams. Before graduating, Peel and Hayman set up a sustainability plan for SOURCE: two students would manage the organization and leadership would be passed down as individuals graduated. In 2010, SOURCE formed an Advisory Committee of experts to provide strategic insight to SOURCE’s management. SOURCE is now managed by Tamar Kaplan (’14) and Kate Johnson (’13).
