We created The GirlCode Program for a small group of girls to learn how to code, meet amazing female mentors in tech, and immerse themselves in a startup community. We support the growth of intellectual confidence, which we believe promotes positive self-esteem and confidence in all areas of their lives.
GirlCode meets once a week after school on the Upper East Side. Classes are held on Thursdays or Saturdays. You can view our full schedule here. |

Our goal is to empower young ladies to see the power in coding. Coding is a way to solve problems. BIG PROBLEMS. They could create an app that can help people donate leftover food from their fridge to homeless shelters. They could send drones with portable wifi devices to Africa to give children access to a free online education. They could build a website to provide resources to kids who's parents are getting divorced. Coding is a powerful tool to help your daughter change the world.
While our ladies may not get to send drones to Africa in this 9 week after-school program, they will be introduced to the basics of programming logic. Our students will start coding in Scratch, a block based programming language created by MIT. More advanced students can work in Javascript or other text-based programming languages.
