Amanda's Story I got interested when I started to learn how to code in high school through computer applications technology when I was in grade 11 going forward to grade 12 I started off with HTML which I showed a lot of interest in .

🙋‍♀️ Amanda's Motivation

My name is Amanda, and I am writing to express my sincere enthusiasm for the opportunity to be considered for the SheCodes scholarship. From the moment I was introduced to coding in 11th grade, I was captivated by its problem-solving nature and limitless potential to create and innovate. Since then, I have dreamed of expanding my skills and pursuing a career as a software developer. However, due to financial constraints, I have been unable to access the necessary resources and formal training to advance my knowledge in this field. This scholarship represents more than just an educational opportunity for me—it is a chance to turn my long-held passion into a tangible reality. I am eager to learn, grow, and apply my skills to build meaningful and impactful projects. With SheCodes' support, I believe I can gain the knowledge and confidence needed to break into the tech industry and contribute to the field in a meaningful way. I deeply admire SheCodes' mission to empower women in technology, and I am excited about the possibility of being part of a community that fosters learning and innovation. I am committed to making the most of this opportunity and, in turn, using my knowledge to inspire and help others who, like me, face barriers to entry in the tech world. Thank you for considering my application. I would be incredibly grateful for the chance to learn with SheCodes and take the next step toward my dream career .

The Delac 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 Delac 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.
