[change] Crowd Funding Campaign for Nairobi Dev School
After being denied a visa to attend a coding school in the United States 19 year old Martha Chumo decided to start a school in Nairobi using crowd funding to pay for space and utilities. The school she's planning to create is modeled after the Hacker School program she was going to attend in New York (https://www.hackerschool.com). Martha goes into more detail on her fundraiser page, I need the funds to start it because the school will be free. Anyone who applies will attend the school for 3 months for free. This is the same experience I was going to get at Hacker school, and I want others to enjoy the same! If you're interested in finding out more about her project, here's a link to the indiegogo page: http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/nairobi-dev-school ___ change mailing list change@change.washington.edu http://changemm.cs.washington.edu/mailman/listinfo/change
