Story

I am joining Women Who Code (WWCode) to the Finish Line to empower diverse women to excel in tech careers. WWCode to the Finish Line turns movement into mission impact through donor support. My fundraising goal is $2,600. I will walk, run, or roll 1 mile/1.6 km (2,600 steps) to raise funds for Women Who Code’s mission and increase visibility for their work. 2,600 represents the national percentage of women in tech—26%. WWCode wants to move the needle on equality and diversity and change the face of tech so that we can have a positive impact on individuals like Daisha. “Finding WWCode was a beacon of hope during some of my darkest days. There were moments when I wanted to give in to the pressure of leaving my tech career. The testimonies of women technologists who owned their womanhood and rocked their respective professional technological stages were nothing short of miraculous. They inspire me to keep going!" - Daisha Batista Donate today to close the gender gap in tech.
