Young Women of Promise forms Girls Who Code Club
Girls Who Code is a national non-profit working to close the gender gap in technology. The clubs provide free afterschool programming for 6-12th grade girls to use computer science to impact their community and join our sisterhood of supportive peers and role models.
CLUBS TEACH GIRLS
Sisterhood. Club girls join a safe and supportive environment of peers and role models and learn to see themselves as computer scientist. Beyond the Club, girls can tap into an alumni network of tens of thousands of girls across the country who are using computer science to solve problems they care about.
Code. Clubs learn the concepts of loops, variables, conditionals, and functions that form the basis for all programming languages - whether they want to build a website, an app, or a robot. Returning girls can deepen their programming knowledge through extended activity sets.
Impact. Club girls work in teams to design and build a Computer Science "CS" Impact Project that solves real world problems they care about through code.
Young Women of Promise plans to launch Girls Who Code Club NC4344 in March of 2018.
If you would be interesting in helping to facilitate our local club, please send a resume via e-mail to ywopromise@yahoo.com.
