Portia's Story I am fascinated to see how lines of code could make things happen . How just a line of codes can turn into a website. I have always wanted to learn how it can be done . I started exploring basic programming languages like html using tutorials. I like the idea of building up something from scratch and seeing it come to life in a screen

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.
