SheCodes will teach 50,000 Nigerian Women to code for free through the SheCodes Foundation.

The tech industry is booming in Nigeria but women are still being left behind. Nigerian women are active in the workforce but typically work lower-paid and informal jobs. A lower rate of secondary school graduation and household responsibilities keep women from joining Africa’s biggest technology market. 31% of Nigerian tech firms have 0 female employees while 55% only employ 1-4 women.Β 

The SheCodes Foundation is offering coding classes at no cost to Nigerian women to help make tech education accessible.Β

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.

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

Hi everyone,

I’m Matt, CEO at SheCodes.

I’m excited to present this project we've been thinking about since starting SheCodes.

The aim is to offer SheCodes workshops at no cost to women living in select developing countries who are facing serious financial and educational challenges.

When I started SheCodes, it was a non-profit. During our past onsite workshops, I always mentioned that my ultimate goal for SheCodes was to open a school providing free education. I’m happy to turn this initial idea into a reality.

This is the beginning of something that will hopefully have an impact on many women.

The Foundation will be financed entirely by SheCodes Workshops, 10% of profits will be used to offer support to more women around the world. If you want to contribute, feel free to purchase SheCodes Workshops for yourself, friends, or family members.

SheCodes will remain paid, yet affordable in developed countries so we can keep offering quality training while expanding globally.

Thanks so much for being part of SheCodes. Together, we’re making an impact.
