Betty's Story My journey into coding began through the guidance of a friend who shared their enthusiasm for the world of programming. Intrigued by the creative potential and problem-solving capabilities inherent in coding, I delved into the realm of programming languages. The initial exposure sparked a genuine curiosity within me, and I found joy in deciphering the intricate logic behind lines of code. As I began experimenting with simple programs, the satisfaction of translating ideas into functional software fueled my passion. The collaborative aspect of coding, bouncing ideas off my friend and troubleshooting together, created a dynamic learning environment. It wasn't just about mastering syntax; it was about crafting solutions and embracing the iterative nature of coding. Over time, I embarked on self-directed learning journeys, exploring online resources, tutorials, and projects to deepen my understanding. This grassroots introduction not only laid the foundation for my technical skills but also instilled in me a resilient problem-solving mindset. From that initial introduction through a friend's encouragement, coding evolved from a curiosity into a fulfilling and lifelong pursuit, shaping the way I approach challenges with creativity and analytical thinking.

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.
