Girl Code Africa
Get Involved
Girl Code Africa is a Non-Governmental Organization that focuses on providing technological education to girls in Ghana and West Africa. Currently, only 26% of computing jobs are held by women with a steady decline over the years.
Development
Initial donations will be used to develop the container classrooms which will be placed in highly densely populated communities to give girls access to this opportunity.
Students
80% is spent on giving the girls the best education by providing the best teachers and devices for them to learn with in remote areas where there is no access to the internet.
Further Education
5% is to support the girls who opt to further their education in the tech sector which will decrease the gender gap in women studying technology. This support goes a long way.
How Your Donations Will Help Girl Code Africa
- We will be creating ten 40ft high tech container computer labs spread out through Ghana.
- Ensuring the girls are safe wih the right safety and security facilities.
- The second stage is to support our students who do not have the capacity to further their education in tech with a scholarship and sponsorship.
- West Africa is the next step, simultaneously setting up in Nigeria, Cote D'ivoire and Liberia.
- Working with businesses to give our girls the working experience they need to bridge the workforce gap.
Our plan is ensure our girls have all the support they need so they can give back and give other girls the opportunity that was given to them.
