Girls decide on a Computer Science (CS) impact project and meet weekly to solve real world problems they care about through code.

In a safe, supportive environment of peers and role models, girls learn programming languages, and learn to see themselves as computer scientists.

Girls learn confidence, time-management, teamwork and communication, and address the shortage of women working in Computer Science.
