Milka's Story In high school, we would be given simple codes and algorithms to execute, and it was fascinating how you could create something so beautiful from just words. Since then, I have always loved writing code and solving related problems.

With dedication and the support of the SheCodes Foundation, I am eager to contribute to a more equitable future in technology. Thank you for considering my application. Sincerely,  Milka Makanda

The Delac Foundation Mission

Women hold only 25% of coding jobs and earn 30% less than men. In many developing countries, over 65% of women lack bank accounts, making it difficult to invest in their education.

The Delac Foundation is changing that. We provide women in developing countries with free coding education, equipping them with the skills to build a better future. In partnership with SheCodes, we offer training in product development, design, and management, empowering women to thrive in the tech industry.
