Why we teach
The Digital Literacy Gap
Women of color have found ways to manifest unique values and strengths, despite the gap that often secludes them from working in tech.
Scarce After-School Programs
We are so much more than your everyday after-school program. Very few programs offer the resources, expertise, and mentorship that we do.
Lack of Early STEM Education
Teaching children advanced computer skills at a young age will only help them as they get older. There are few organizations that advocate for thsi early STEM awareness and devopment in youth.
Non-Intersectionality Education
The fusion of race theory and gender theory in the discussion of technology is not prevelant in most education systems, if any.
It is the resilience of the oppressed that our programs and organization values. Notably, the creativity from the under-resourced, bilingualism, multicultural perspectives, philanthropic love, black girl magic, code switching-social intelligence, and humor of well lived experiences, just to name a few. These brilliances are braided together to bring a unique holistic wellbeing for our youth to thrive.
What Sets Us Apart
We strive to close the digital literacy gap in kids of color through
Equity, Education, Intersectionality, and Technology
Equity
We are confronting inequality deeply rooted in our system by bridging education and technology.
Education
Youth development is a family effort and we engage with student’s families, schools and other organization.
Intersectionality
Through awareness of our differences, we can better understand and acknowledge differences among us.
Technology
We are driven in our efforts to dismantle racism and reduce the digital literacy gap through tech education.
