GirlsCodeIt is a non-profit organization that strives to bridge the gender gap in the STEM world. Only 1 in 5 computer programmers are women, and it is time to change that statistic. We want to assist those without coding resources to learn the skills of the future, while also empowering both genders to take up a position in coding. We host free weekly events and workshops that are open to the public to achieve this goal. Although our main audience is currently mostly girls, we welcome anyone and everyone of any background or gender to join.

While women have made gains in STEM career fields, persistent gaps remain. The U.S. continues to fall short in empowering young women to lead the way, especially those who are marginalized. Until now.

#GirlsLeadSTEM will celebrate the girls who lead their STEM journeys and empower them to raise their voices to inspire each other and share what’s still needed to close gaps in STEM equity.

Girlstart's mission is to increase girls' interest and engagement in STEM through innovative, nationally-recognized informal STEM education programs.

Girlstart aspires to be the national leader in designing and implementing innovative, high quality informal STEM education programs that inspire girls to transform our world.

Gold House is the premier nonprofit collective of Asian founders, creative voices, and leaders dedicated to unifying the world's largest populace–Asians–to enable more authentic multicultural representation and societal equity.

The collective's members include C-Suite/Partner/President-level executives, A-List creatives, Olympic-level athletes, and successfully-exited founders. Its ventures include a slate of efforts to forge deeper bonds including networking Salons that unlock new professional opportunities; investment vehicles that enable authentic representation like #GoldOpen and content financing; promotional systems that systematically support Asian founders like Gold Rush; a network of caregivers to elongate longevity; and celebratory efforts like the A100 List that honors historic Asian achievements.

In contrast to every major successful diaspora, Asians lack a cohesive culture of mutual support. Our fifty ethnicities, hundreds of dialects, and distributed density across the globe have only extended this fracture. And yet, we've witnessed the positive cultural impact when communities rally to support their own: from the invention of new creative institutions like Hip Hop and R&B or leading an entire industry in commerce. To accelerate our people's professional and cultural legacy, we've built an exclusive collective of the most influential pan-Asian founders, creative voices, and leaders dedicated to erecting infrastructural opportunities for ourselves, future generations, and society, at large. We achieve our mission through three ventures: Convening the brightest minds to identify forward-looking solutions to today's challenges; Creating opportunities for ourselves and society, at large; and Championing excellence in the community.
