It’s our goal to teach 1,000 Jamaican Women how to code

👩‍💻
SheCodes will teach 1,000 Jamaican Women to code for free through the Delac Foundation.

Jamaica has recently made significant advances in women's access to education. It's estimated that women comprise 62.6% of all students in further education in Jamaica. However, despite these steady improvements in education, the gender gap still exists in the world of work. Women on average earn 81% of the income of male workers. There is also inequality in the type of work that women do, based on social expectations. Most of Jamaica's 100,000 domestic workers are women.
 
The SheCodes Foundation offers coding classes at no cost to help women in Jamaica develop key skills and find other ways to build a professional career.

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.

Hi everyone,

I’m Matt, CEO at SheCodes.

I’m excited to present this project we've been thinking about since starting SheCodes.

The aim is to offer SheCodes workshops at no cost to women living in select developing countries who are facing serious financial and educational challenges.

When I started SheCodes, it was a non-profit. During our past onsite workshops, I always mentioned that my ultimate goal for SheCodes was to open a school providing free education. I’m happy to turn this initial idea into a reality.

This is the beginning of something that will hopefully have an impact on many women.

The Foundation will be financed entirely by SheCodes Workshops, 10% of profits will be used to offer support to more women around the world. If you want to contribute, feel free to purchase SheCodes Workshops for yourself, friends, or family members.

SheCodes will remain paid, yet affordable in developed countries so we can keep offering quality training while expanding globally.

Thanks so much for being part of SheCodes. Together, we’re making an impact.
