App Camp for Girls seeks to address the gender imbalance in technology professions by inspiring middle-school age girls with a broad introduction to the process of app development, from brainstorming and designing ideas to building and pitching their apps. App Camp For Girls believes that the experience of creating an app that runs on a device in one week can spark the enthusiasm that will propel girls to pursue further the education.
In addition, App Camp For Girls is a place for women in the tech community to come together, network, and provide mutual support in their endeavors to advance in the field of software development. App Camp For Girls encourages and supports their volunteers to continue their own education in programming and design. -
