Thubelihle 's Story In my honest opinion, the first introduction to coding was through the movies Hackers and Ex-Machina, and I was beyond amazed to find that this not only exists in films but is a reality. Therefore, I furthered my research through YouTube and found that coding is such a diverse field, has a high demand, and truly can be one of the many reasons to improve the lives of many in developing countries (like mine) when done well through innovative and creative ways. My end goal is to become a software engineer and eventually be able to solve complex problems within the tech field, making the world a better place through technology. I currently believe I am motivated enough to learn about coding and begin my tech career.

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.
