Phindile's Story I worked as a call centre agent for almost 10 years and in every company I worked at, there would always be software upgrades and this always fascinated me as how these systems work especially when we had system issues. I would always have solutions in my mind on how they could be fixed, but I would be told it's not as easy as I think it is which got me curious to a point were I told myself I'm going to buy myself a laptop and learn this skill.

🙋‍♀️ Phindile's Motivation

A colleague of mine (Tshiamo) told me about SheCodes, she told me it's a free campaign where you learn how to code and get a new skill, because I was planning on furthering my studies at a university to learn computer science. I thought this opportunity would be perfect for me to learn the basics and getting a strong foundation since I do not have the funds to get a tertiary education.

🤹‍♀️ Phindile's Hobbies

I love to read motivational books. I'm currently reading Atomic Habits (highly recommend), and I just finished reading The Alchemist (it was underwhelming but interesting). I enjoy spending time with family and friends. I love to go out to explore new places. I also enjoy keeping up to date with current affairs (it's sad what's happening in Somalia currently with this child marriage issue).

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.
