Christabel's Story I use to have a friend who codes she is a front end dev. And before this I have always had a thing for video games and how they are built and all. But my friend Kene open my eye. To see that there is more to just code so I wish to be a part of it

🙋‍♀️ Christabel's Motivation

Why I, Christabel, Should Break Into Tech with Shecodes As a woman, pursuing a career in technology is not just a professional ambition but a deeply personal journey of resilience, courage, and hope. Throughout my life, I’ve seen how technology can shape the world, solve problems, and create opportunities that transcend borders. However, breaking into tech has often felt like an uphill battle. As a woman, I have had to face a unique set of challenges—skepticism about my abilities, the lack of representation, and the pressure to constantly prove myself in a male-dominated field. Despite these barriers, my passion for technology remains unshaken. I know that my journey won’t be easy, but I am determined to break through. I want to be a part of a movement that redefines what it means to be a woman in tech. I want to contribute to innovations that not only improve lives but inspire other women like me to believe that they too can thrive in this space. This scholarship represents more than financial aid to me; it symbolizes an opportunity to break free from limitations and prove that women like myself belong in tech. With this support, I will be able to focus on my studies, enhance my skills, and one day stand as a testament to the power of perseverance in the face of adversity. By earning a place in this industry, I hope to pave the way for the next generation of women to follow their dreams without hesitation. Thank you for considering my application and for helping women like me rise in tech.

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.
