Program areas at Rewriting the Code
General Programming Rewriting the Code hosted 125+ events & programs attended by 7,071 members, awarded 44 conference scholarships and distributed $163,936 in support via the RTC Women in Tech Fund. Additionally, RTC launched the Rising Leader Institute to elevate and develop 30 student leaders and kicked off a new community for our Early Career members, with initial in-person hubs based in Seattle and NYC.
Reboot Representation (formerly called Latinas de RTC/Blackwings) Black Wings aims to foster a sense of inclusion and belonging for Black women in tech by engaging their perspectives in a way that acknowledges the unique experiences they encounter on a daily basis. Establishing this community can have a breakthrough impact on students, and demonstrates the overall goal of fighting barriers of discrimination for women in tech. To that end, we have created the Black Wings community within Rewriting the Code that is 1,200+ women and growing. The Latinas de RTC group was created for Latina women in technology and engineering majors to share experiences and advice, have a familiar community within the tech industry, and gain the support that comes from having a group of women with shared interests. The group is built around inclusivity, and was created as a welcoming, safe space to share experiences, talk about difficult topics, and most importantly meet new Latinas who you can have fun with. Just as with all of Rewriting the Code, the community is free to join.
Women in Tech Fund A $1.5M collaborative fund between Goldman Sachs and Rewriting the Code that invests in degree completion for undergrad women in computing facing financial obstacles to graduation.
