Irina's Story When I found out that it was possible to make money from home and with as little contact with people as possible. It's amazing to me to know that people can make money doing what they like. I'm not sure I'd be good at coding, as I'm a philologist by training and a humanitarian by mindset, but I really want to try and become good at it. Maybe that's how I'll get my freedom.

🙋‍♀️ Irina's Motivation

I at the moment I have been temporarily taken in as a resettler by distant relatives who are very much looking forward to me leaving. Since before the military aggression of the Russian Federation on the territory of my Kharkiv, I was sitting on my ass working as an assistant-translator, I know that seeking temporary asylum in Europe, it will be very difficult for me to find a job, because besides English I have little skills (and my English is not advanced), and gender discrimination in recruitment has not been abolished. Before the war I tried to learn programming on my own, but on page 30 of Cory Altcoff's "Self-Programmer" it became difficult. But I know the code by heart: for i in range: (100) print: Hello, world! I'm an introvert and I'm having a hard time at the moment. I want to go home to my settled flat, but I can't go back. Maybe if I learn even a small part of what you know, I can find a remote job and support myself without moving, registering and burdening other people with my presence. Thank you for your platform and for sharing your knowledge. Peace to you! Regards, Irina

SheCodes Foundation Mission

Women currently hold 25% of coding jobs and earn 30% less money than men. In most developing countries, more than 65% of women don't have bank accounts and cannot afford to invest in their education. Female refugees also don’t have many opportunities to invest in their education and improve their career horizon - they often work in unskilled, undervalued, and low-paid informal sectors.

SheCodes is here to help provide women in developing countries and women who are refugees with the opportunity to learn how to code for free. SheCodes offers a solid introduction to product development, product design and product management.
