Ignite – Inspiring Girls in Technology Evolution

MVIMG 20190504 195907

This year we discovered a fantastic organization that is right up our alley. We had a great time attending their annual fundraiser and donating to their auction.

IGNITE’s mission is to create opportunities to spark girls’ excitement about technology careers and inspire them to new possibilities. IGNITE lights them up. Self-identifying girls and non-binary students in grades K-12, and college from all backgrounds interact with professional women in technology careers during the school day. Young women and non-binary students glimpse themselves as innovators and entrepreneurs through stories of successful women who work and live in their communities. Working with teachers, IGNITE increases girls and non-binary students interest and participation in computer science and engineering classes.
