Girls Who Code (also known as GWC) is an international nonprofit organization that aims to support and increase the number of women in computer science.

[8] Girls Who Code was founded by Reshma Saujani in 2012 who came up with the idea of creating the organization during her run for the United States Congress.

Reshma's inspiration stemmed from finding that schools along her campaign route lacked female representation in computer science classrooms.

[14] By December 2014, three thousand students had completed a Girls Who Code program, 95% of whom stated they desired to major in computer science in higher education.

[19][20] The organization is sponsored by several software and technology companies, including AOL, Google, and Microsoft,[15][21] and in August 2014 received a $1 million contribution from AT&T.

[27] Girls Who Code alumni include Andrea Gonzales and Sophie Houser, the creators of the video game Tampon Run.

This new brand update involved many different types of waves, a new color palette, a font change, and a single-color logo.

The club curriculum is built on four foundational computer science concepts: loops, conditionals, variables, and functions.

Club activities consist of coding tutorials, pre-professional workshops, and community building events.

[30] These summer camps are based at more than 80 technology companies across the United States, including Facebook, Twitter, Adobe, Prudential, Microsoft, and Sephora.

[32] In 2016, Girls Who Code partnered with Accenture[33] and subsequently, released a report on recommendations to decrease the gender gap in computing.

The organization also created four scholarships, each $5,000, for Girls Who Code members for furthering their computer science education.

[39][40] In December 2021, Girls Who Code partnered with Doja Cat and Active Theory to create DojaCode, an interactive music video to the star's single 'Woman'.

The commercial featured Lilly Singh, Busy Philipps, Taraji P. Henson, Katie Couric, and retired astronaut Nicole Stott.
