The Girls Who Code movement has come to Cheyenne.

Brought to you by Array and The Array Foundation.

We are so excited to have launched our brand-new foundation with a Girls Who Code chapter here in Cheyenne! Our first cohort began in January 2020 and are currently getting ready for our 3rd cohort. We help coach, teach, and mentor 15 girls in grade levels 6–12 after school twice a week remotely.

Interested in joining us for our next cohort?

Apply today! We'll let you know when the next cohort will begin.

About Girls Who Code

Girls Who Code is an international organization with over 185,000 girls around the world learning how to code through their chapter. According to their website, their mission is:

"Girls Who Code is on a mission to close the gender gap in technology and to change the image of what a programmer looks like and does."

Through The Array Foundation, we were able to host and sponsor a chapter right here in Cheyenne.

About the Cheyenne Girls Who Code Club

Girls Who Code Cheyenne is led by Ana Monzon who is a software developer at Systems Analyst, and facilitates our community's Girls Who Code Chapter. Cohorts meet weekly for 15 weeks at the Array School of Technology and Design in downtown Cheyenne. Class size is limited to 15 girls and computers will be provided for the girls to use during the course.

Ana states, "Girls Who Code Clubs are meant for girls to join a sisterhood of supportive peers and role models, and use computer science to change the world. The Girls Who Code Clubs encourage middle and high school girls to impact their communities in a positive way through code. We are excited to offer this in Cheyenne."

For more information, to volunteer, or to donate, reach out to Ana directly at: ana@t hearrayfoundation.

The Cheyenne Girls Who Code Club would never have happened had it not been for these incredibly generous and passionate sponsors who helped us buy computers and materials to launch the club.
