Feven Zeray's Story I first became interested in coding after joining a Full Stack Web Development bootcamp in September last year. Prior to that, my background was in the health field, but I was always curious about technology and how it can shape the future. During the bootcamp, I was introduced to the world of web development, and it was an eye-opening experience. I realized how vast and impactful the tech field is and how coding could be used to solve real-world problems. This sparked a strong interest in technology and opened my eyes to the endless opportunities available in the field. In my country, technology and coding are often seen as fields dominated by men. This motivated me even more to pursue coding—not only for personal growth but also to become an inspiration for women in my community. I want to show that women can succeed in tech, break barriers, and prove that it’s possible for women to thrive in industries typically reserved for men. By pursuing a career in tech, I hope to encourage other women to follow their passions and explore these exciting fields.

🙋‍♀️ Feven Zeray's Motivation

I am from Gondar, Ethiopia, a developing country that faces numerous challenges, including ongoing wars and economic crises. Despite these hardships, I am determined to create a better future for myself and my family. I initially tried to teach myself coding through YouTube tutorials, I found it challenging to navigate the learning process independently. The hardest part of being self-taught was not knowing the right roadmap. The constant uncertainty and scattered information often made me feel confused and discouraged, causing me to lose hope at times. However, I reached out to Ethiopian students who had previously enrolled in SheCodes, and they highly recommended the program. Their positive feedback about the structure, mentorship, and the supportive community in SheCodes motivated me to apply. I am a hardworking, team-oriented individual with strong problem-solving skills, and I am motivated to put in the effort required to succeed. I am excited to work with like-minded individuals who are passionate about learning and technology. SheCodes perfectly aligns with my goals of gaining valuable coding skills, opening new career opportunities, and creating a meaningful impact. This program will provide me with the guidance and resources I need to reach my goals, transition into the tech field, and ultimately contribute to my community’s development.

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.
