== Creation == After a visit to a Ghana library by Zuckerman in 1993, the lack of up-to-date resources available prompted him to create Geekcorps years later. Humanitarian and banker Elisa Korentayer became co-founder of Geekcorps due to the organization's need of financial wisdom.<ref name=":0" /> In effort to increase access to current information and bridge the [[digital divide]] in developing nations Zuckerman, and associates from his now bought out internet company [[Tripod.com|tripod]], funded most of the $350,000 budget for Geekcorps' first year.
