The largest summer coding program for girls globally — that's what we've been working on behind the scenes @GirlsWhoCode team. And I'm SO proud. It's virtual, free, and most importantly — accessible for the highest-need girls. Low tech? No tech? No problem.
You thought a pandemic was going to stop us? HA. 📢 Announcing the biggest girls summer coding program in the world 👩🏾💻 Low tech? No tech? No problem. Just fill out our tech needs survey. 💪🏿 Let's do this. https://t.co/U6jFMF4elx

We must design a future that is shaped by women and girls—that realizes their rights and aspirations to a world where equality is a reality. It's time for a generation of equals to lead with dignity and hope. #WomensDay

Today is #InternationalWomensDay and we recognise that women are still far from equal to men in today’s societies. We can not have climate justice without gender equity. And remember; what we women want today - and every day- is equality, not congratulations or celebrations.

#KatherineJohnson "... gave us a new perspective on our planet, a view of earth from space. And she gave us a new perspective on ourselves: on whom we let in, whom we allow to thrive, whom we write into our history books." - @reshmasaujani

We've gone international! One of our first countries we expanded to was Canada! Our CEO @reshmasaujani's featured in @BayStBull talking about how we are working to help close the gender gap in Canada! 🇨🇦

To close the gender gap in computer science, we need to start by exposing kids to more women tech role models, but 70% of Canadian said they grew up with none. Thanks to @WinnipegSun + @scottbilleck for covering our report and helping lead this conversation! @reshmasaujani
