habtam's Story I first became interested in coding during my early years as a student. I was fascinated by how software could be used to solve real-world problems and make tasks more efficient. My curiosity grew when I started exploring web development and realized that coding could bring my ideas to life. I started learning languages like Python and JavaScript, and the process of building my own projects gave me a sense of accomplishment. Over time, I recognized that coding isn’t just a skill—it's a way to create meaningful change, which continues to inspire me to learn more.

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.
