“The most valuable investment we can make is in our children's education. When we make education a priority, we give our children opportunity. Opportunity to learn at higher levels than their parents were able to learn; to earn at higher levels than we were able to earn.” - Martin O'Malley

This program was designed to help high school students in underserved communities gain access to technology training. Oftentimes the lunch that our kids have at school is the only meal they eat for the entire day. There are also instances where our kids are having to help provide income for their families and households, which takes away from valuable study time and more shockingly it sometimes puts our kids in situations that can be harmful for them. Our number one goal is that we want to keep our young kids alive, keep them away from violence

With our high school after school coding program we are teaching our kids full-stack software development. They will learn how to build websites and apps from start to finish as well as be able to make the system live for public use. We've stacked in more benefits that help our young people thrive. Our students are able to receive dual credit hours from Nashville State Community College and our other community college partners. We also provide guaranteed internships upon program completion.

These programs are essential to the growth and development of our young people. This provides an outlet that keeps our young people away from violence and in an environment that is driven by hope and aspirations.
