Athesh's Story I have friends that work in the similar fiields and they are very successful. Unfortunately, unlike them. I did not have the financial support to further my studies in the field. I find it interesting and am a very analytical, detail orientated individual.

🙋‍♀️ Athesh's Motivation

Iv always wanted to study coding but have never been able to die to resource and financial constraints. I want to change my career and be able to work in the IT field, particularly Coding as I’m passionate about it . I also need to up skill myself in order to be able to find a decent job , and become financially stable in order to pay my bills amd take carr of my mother. To to have a job in a field that I’m passionate about and also earn an income at the same time is a blessing. I have friends that work similar fields and they are so successful . In SA, at my age, it’s not easy to find work and I have no other financial supprt. Iv been searching for ways to study coding for a while and today I came across a video on TikTok about SheCodes. I believe that it was meant for me find out about your organisation.

The SheCodes Foundation Mission

Women hold only 25% of coding jobs and earn 30% less than men. In many developing countries, over 65% of women lack bank accounts, making it difficult to invest in their education.

The SheCodes Foundation is changing that. We provide women in developing countries with free coding education, equipping them with the skills to build a better future. In partnership with SheCodes, we offer training in product development, design, and management, empowering women to thrive in the tech industry.
