Assuming the parallel name to "Teach for America" is intentional, one of the primary motivators is missing: paying off college loans. Teach for America pays 100% of interest accrued while in the program, and gives you (admittedly small) awards to pay back some of your college loans. You also get loan deferment while you're in the program, just like if you were still in school. This doesn't change the societal value or possibilities of the "Code for America" program, but it makes it impossible for those of us who are going to graduate soon with huge loan debt to participate.
