Made with Code

<p>Made with Code is an initiative launched by <a href="/facts/Google/GT9Sugza">Google</a> on 19 July 2014 aimed to empower young women in middle and high schools with computer programming skills. Made with Code was established after Google's research found that encouragement and exposure are the critical factors that would influence young females to pursue careers in <a href="/facts/Computer_science/lN3pEyPz">computer science</a>. It was reported that Google is providing $50 million in funding to Made with Code, on top of the initial $40 million invested since 2010 in organizations like <a href="/facts/Code.org/tkl028al">Code.org</a>, <a href="/facts/Black_Girls_Code/znGWlf66">Black Girls Code</a>, and <a href="/facts/Girls_Who_Code/8Q52QMGE">Girls Who Code</a>. The Made with Code initiative involves both online activities as well as real life events, collaborating with notable firms like <a href="/facts/Shapeways/DKtxkf2I">Shapeways</a> and <a href="/facts/App_Inventor/IclELXqa">App Inventor</a>.
