Sheila 's Story Almost all frequently used applications are developed using code. By learning code, I would also be able to develop something new that could help society or edit the existing code to generate desired results.

🙋‍♀️ Sheila 's Motivation

I would like to be to acquire additional skills that can be useful in the job market and give me a fighting chance against common prejudices on women that I recently experienced during my internship. I would like to be more prepared as I move into the job market when I graduate.

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.
