Lindelwa's Story My journey into the world of coding began with a spark of fascination ignited by stories of individuals breaking into the tech industry. Growing up, I've always been drawn to technology, marveling at its ability to transform the way we live, work, and communicate. As I immersed myself in tales of people from diverse backgrounds transitioning into tech careers through coding, I couldn't help but feel inspired.

SheCodes Foundation Mission

Women currently hold 25% of coding jobs and earn 30% less money than men. In most developing countries, more than 65% of women don't have bank accounts and cannot afford to invest in their education. Female refugees also don’t have many opportunities to invest in their education and improve their career horizon - they often work in unskilled, undervalued, and low-paid informal sectors.

SheCodes is here to help provide women in developing countries and women who are refugees with the opportunity to learn how to code for free. SheCodes offers a solid introduction to product development, product design and product management.
