Overview

The IT Girls foundation was established on the basis of its founders' experiences, sisters - Wiola and Ada. They have gone through every step in IT themselves - from the interest, through choosing a university, to working in the profession. The foundation wants to inspire and educate children and young people about their development opportunities in professions related to new technologies and IT. The foundation was established to help children and adolescents in making their dreams of working in technology-related professions come true. All its activities are focused on development paths, data-based education and take place with the support of partners: parents, partners, other non-governmental organizations. The main goal of the foundation is to contribute to increasing the participation of women in the IT industry. And they strive for this through education, programs and workshops for children. Thanks to this, children and adolescents are not afraid to reach for the dream of working in new technologies. ‘’We want young girls not to be afraid to dream of a career in the technology industry. We want to help them in developing their passion for technology, inspire them to take action and look boldly into the future - because it depends only on them.’’ - say the sisters, Wioletta and Adrianna Klimczak.
