Code.org promotes diversity in computer science by engaging students from all backgrounds and meeting them where they are. We tailor our approach to their skill levels, schools, and interests, making coding not only accessible but also fun and inspiring, encouraging them to continue their learning journey.
We strive to improve diversity among U.S. students studying computer science. Currently, 45% of our students are young women, 50% come from marginalized racial and ethnic backgrounds, and 46% of students are from high-needs schools. Learn more about our diversity initiatives.
By supporting our initiatives, businesses can contribute resources, mentorship, and opportunities that empower the next generation of tech leaders. Together, we can inspire young minds and foster a diverse talent pool that drives innovation and growth in the tech industry.

Coding empowers children to express their ideas, build their own projects, and understand the digital world around them. As they learn to code, they not only develop critical thinking and resilience but also gain the confidence to tackle challenges and collaborate with others. With the right support and resources, we can help them see coding not just as a skill, but as a pathway to endless possibilities.
