Babalwa's Story I first heard about a free programme that was being offered to children in one of the townships in Cape Town. I was so curious about it but there was an age limit. I did some research and thought of how I could use it to bring solutions that improve people's lives, especially in rural and neglected communities. Things like designing payment systems,better ways of providing electricity and internet to the communities who desperately need them most. I want to make the impossible and unimaginable happen.

🙋‍♀️ Babalwa's Motivation

I feel learning how to code will help me learn a new skill so I can find a job and help my family. I feel stuck and helpless and find it difficult to depend on others and would like to do something for myself that will make me feel proud. This course make a huge difference in my life and future and it's also a skill that I can share with my community at large.

🤹‍♀️ Babalwa's Hobbies

I'm curious about technology and how things work so I like testing and fixing things.I like to take long walks in the mornings to help clear my mind. Music is something I don't think can ever live without, whatever mood I'm in I turn to music. There is a song I can relate to every event in my life. Lastly, reading. I can get lost on the pages of a beautiful book without leaving home. I learnt how to use my imagination as a child while reading Roald Dahl books and I can still remember the first timecI got a library card. I spent most of my afternoons on those floors peeling through pages of books. It remains one of my favorite things to do to this day.

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.
