Salaam's Story My interest in coding first sparked during the COVID-19 lockdowns. Like many people, my world suddenly became almost entirely digital. I was spending more time than ever on apps, websites, and video calls, and I went from just using technology every day to becoming genuinely curious about how it all worked. I found myself wondering, 'How do they make a button do that?' or 'How does a website remember my login?' I tried to explore it on my own, diving into free online resources, but I quickly hit a wall. It felt like trying to learn a new language without a dictionary or a teacher overwhelming and isolating. The initial excitement was there, but without a clear path or anyone to guide me, that curiosity unfortunately got put on the back burner for a while. That period of fascination, followed by frustration, is actually what makes this opportunity so meaningful to me now.

🙋‍♀️ Salaam's Motivation

My motivation for learning to code with SheCodes stems from a long-held interest that began during the COVID lockdowns. That period gave me the time and space to explore the digital world, and I became fascinated by how websites and applications are built. However, like many beginners, I found the journey into coding daunting, I didn't have a mentor, a clear starting point, or a structured path to follow, which made it easy to put my dream on hold. That's exactly why SheCodes is the perfect solution for me. It directly addresses the two biggest hurdles I've faced opportunity and guidance

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.
