Your Impact

When you donate to our scholarship program, you ensure that bright young minds receive:

  • Free tuition for Java coding classes for kids in 5th-12th grade
  • Laptops and a secure Wi-Fi connection
  • Weekly tech support from our caring and patient staff
  • A safe space for kids to build confidence in their technological skills
  • The opportunity to gain professional certification as a Java programmer
  • A direct entry path into the workforce!

Your support helps us to combat the “digital divide” between wealthy and low-income communities and opens doors for under-resourced and under-represented youth to excel in the realm of technology. During the Pandemic, we have been able to adapt our classes to high-quality virtual classrooms. We are now able to offer both in-person and online classes to maximize our reach.
