Who we are
Black Kids Code (Girls) is a new Initiative by Black Boys Code— the leading organization in Canada focused on equipping Black youth with the skills and mindset to be leaders in technology.
Technology is the future. By equipping Black Girls to be ready, the future couldn’t get any brighter! Black Girls Code empowers Black youth in digital literacy so they can disrupt, design and innovate the world of technology.
- WHAT WE PROVIDE
How
Our programs are designed to develop technological competence through computer programming during a critical learning period for children, while also fostering a sense of belonging and confidence.
Exposure workshops
An introduction to the world of programming showing students they are more than capable of learning to code.
After-school programs
Virtual after-school lessons that teach the basics of coding, website building, and working with tools like Micro:bit and Arduino robotics kits.
Summer technology camps
Foundations of coding, robotics, and electronics, expanding on the technical foundation built in previous programs.
Investing in Black girls will change the world
Black women are the most underrepresented group in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math). By investing in Black girls early, we can help close the diversity gap in technology
