Programs

Girls Tech Together is 501(c)(3) non-profit organization aimed at introducing elementary-school girls to fundamental concepts in the Computer Science field through introductory activities, coding lessons, and interaction with professionals in the CS area. Girls are exposed to lessons about loops, conditionals, functions, etc. through a 10-week program.

Husky Robots will foster disadvantaged girls’ computer science skills through Wonder Workshops’ Learn to Code curriculum, developing their ability to run a series of K-3 lunch-bunch robotics sessions, allowing for sustained programming across grades, leading to a school robotics team. Leaders will either be Technopreneur participants or new 4th graders.

This virtual 6 week program is tailored to teach middle school girls how to code in Python in an inclusive, safe, and engaging environment. We will also discuss being a woman in STEM and share multiple opportunities for girls to continue to follow their passions for STEM.

Represent IT is a CyberSecurity-based program meant to encourage interest in the field, bring to light the need for increased representation in IT, provide educational resources for students to learn critical CyberSecurity concepts (from Python Programming to using the Linux Terminal), and give participants opportunities to network with guest speakers from the industry and learn from their experiences in the field.

Participants will learn C++ coding through building circuits with Arduino. This will be a hybrid virtual and hands-on learning experience. All sessions will be through Zoom and the last few programs will be hands-on with materials sent to participants' house.
