- shreythecray 4y agoI founded a tech education non-profit where we build free and open source coding bootcamps (bitproject.org) and want to make sure that our resources are being distributed to people who will benefit from them the most i.e. to respond to your question - both financial and volunteering.
- danamit 4y agoLooks nice. I am intending to do something similar locally (in a year or so), I will reach out if I need the help from your network (just an occasional talk from a tech worker would help a lot confidence-wise). I did check the coding bootcamps, and they seem more advanced than what I am intending to teach, since my primary motive is introducing teens to coding and hopefully some of them will keep up.
- shreythecray 4y agoThat's awesome! We do have some prep programs but I would love to get your thoughts on how we can make our programs more beginner friendly.
