xongani's Story My interest in coding first sparked when I realized the immense impact technology has on our daily lives. Growing up in a digital era, I was always intrigued by how websites, apps, and software are created and how they seamlessly integrate into our routines. The more I interacted with technology, the more I wanted to understand the mechanisms behind it. Additionally, I found inspiration in witnessing the transformative power of coding in various fields, from healthcare to entertainment. Learning about innovative solutions developed through coding, such as life-saving medical devices or immersive virtual reality experiences, fascinated me and fueled my curiosity to delve deeper into this realm. Moreover, I was captivated by the creative aspect of coding. The ability to turn ideas into tangible products through lines of code seemed like magic to me. The prospect of building something from scratch and seeing it come to life on a screen was incredibly enticing. As I explored coding further, I discovered its potential not only as a technical skill but also as a tool for problem-solving and self-expression. Whether it was automating repetitive tasks or crafting interactive websites, coding offered endless possibilities for exploration and growth. In essence, my interest in coding blossomed from a combination of fascination with technology, admiration for its transformative capabilities, and a desire for creative expression and problem-solving.

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.
