Ashley's Story I first became interested in coding when I realized how much technology is involved in our daily lives. I started to wonder how websites, apps, and digital tools were built. This curiosity led me to watch videos and read articles about coding and web development. I was fascinated by how just a few lines of code could create something useful and interactive. I’ve always enjoyed solving problems and being creative, and coding seemed like the perfect mix of both. Seeing other people, especially women, share their stories about learning to code inspired me even more. It made me believe that I could do it too. I began thinking seriously about learning to code as a way to open up new career opportunities and challenge myself with something completely new. The idea of being able to create my own projects and understand the technology behind the tools we use every day became very exciting. That’s when I decided I wanted to take the next step and join a program that could help me learn and grow in this field.

Most of all, I want to feel proud of learning a new skill and being part of a growing community of women in tech. I’m ready to work hard, learn as much as I can, and turn this into a career I love.

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.
