Sisiphiwo 's Story My interest in coding grew from my curiosity about how digital platforms work and my passion for creativity in the online space. As someone interested in marketing and content creation, I’ve always been fascinated by how websites, apps, and digital tools shape user experiences. Over time, I realized that coding is the backbone of these platforms, and learning it would empower me to bring my own ideas to life. Additionally, my academic background in research has shown me the importance of data analysis and problem-solving—skills that coding enhances. Seeing how technology drives innovation in various fields inspired me to take the next step and formally learn to code. SheCodes provides the perfect opportunity to develop these skills in an inclusive and supportive environment, and I’m excited to be part of a community that encourages women to thrive in tech.

Helping others develop their confidence and skills is something I find incredibly rewarding.

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.
