yonela's Story I first became interested in coding when I realized how much of everyday life is powered by technology and how little I understood what was happening behind the scenes. I was curious about how websites and apps are built and wanted to move from just using technology to actually creating it. As I explored more, I found coding to be both challenging and rewarding, which motivated me to learn more and develop my skills further.

🙋‍♀️ yonela's Motivation

My motivation for learning how to code with SheCodes is to gain practical, in-demand technical skills in a supportive and accessible environment. I want to understand how technology works behind the scenes and be able to build real projects with confidence. SheCodes stands out to me because it makes coding approachable, encourages women to step into tech, and focuses on hands-on learning that leads to real career opportunities. Learning to code would empower me to be more independent, creative, and adaptable in an increasingly digital world.

🤹‍♀️ yonela's Hobbies

In my free time, I enjoy learning new skills, especially anything creative or tech-related. I like exploring design, experimenting with digital tools, and working on small personal projects. Outside of that, I enjoy reading, listening to music, spending time with friends and family, and staying active with walks or light workouts. I also like discovering new ideas online and keeping up with trends in technology and creativity.

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.
