From an early age, Dalitso Sulamoyo knew he wanted a college education.
But that seemed unlikely for someone living in one of the poorest countries in the world.
Sulamoyo — who today is chief executive officer of the Springfield-based Illinois Association of Community Action Agencies — was born and raised in Malawi, a New Hampshire-sized country in Africa with a population of 12 million.
Sulamoyo eventually found a family that paid for him to complete his bachelor’s degree at Illinois College in Jacksonville and a master’s degree at the University of Illinois Springfield.
