Sara's Story My interest in coding began before I even joined university. I was first introduced to an old PC that worked with BASIC programming language, and it sparked a fascination in me. Seeing how lines of code could create something functional and impactful was captivating. This early exposure led me to pursue a degree in computer science, where I delved deeper into programming and its possibilities. Now, as a Sudanese refugee in Egypt, this foundational interest in coding is driving me to enhance my skills further. I believe that by mastering coding, I can create new opportunities for myself and my family, turning a childhood curiosity into a practical and promising career path.

🙋‍♀️ Sara's Motivation

As a Sudanese refugee in Egypt, my motivation for learning to code with SheCodes stems from a deep desire to create new opportunities for myself and my family. Having experienced the challenges of displacement and the need to adapt to a new environment, I see coding as a powerful tool that can open doors to meaningful employment and stability. By gaining these skills, I hope to contribute positively to my new community, secure a job that provides financial support, and ultimately create a better future for my family. Coding represents a chance to build a new path and achieve personal and professional growth despite the difficulties I’ve faced.

🤹‍♀️ Sara's Hobbies

For fun, I love spending time with my family and friends. It’s important to me to stay connected and support each other. I also enjoy teaching kids about new technology; it’s rewarding to see their curiosity and excitement as they learn. Reading is another passion of mine, whether it’s exploring new ideas or escaping into a good story, it’s a great way to relax and continue learning.

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.
