WINTER 2017 ALL STAR CODE FREE six week program SUMMER 2017 BOYS WHO CODE Deadline is Monday, March 6th at 11:59pm.

 All Star Code
We’re a nonprofit that prepares young Black and Latino men for tech careers by providing mentorship, industry exposure, and training in Computer Science. Our flagship program, the Summer Intensive, is a FREE six week program designed to give high school boys the access and exposure they need to become successful tech entrepreneurs. Through real-world experiences at top tech companies, and hands-on, project-based learning, All Stars finish the program with both coding skills and an entrepreneurial mindset.

Our 2017 Summer Intensive application is live as of Wednesday, February 1 and we need your help to ensure that every eligible student has access to this opportunity to #DareGreatly. Will you please share our application link with Sophomore and Junior boys in your district? Interested students can learn more by visiting http://www.allstarcode.org/apply/. Deadline is Monday, March 6th at 11:59pm.

Coming up soon is the first annual All Star Con on Wednesday, February 22nd, from 3:00pm to 7:00pm. Potential applicants can come to meet our alumni, see demos of the coding skills they’ll learn in the Summer Intensive, and check out some of the tech companies who partner with us. Snacks will be served and computers will be set up for students to complete Part 1 of our application. Find details and RSVP at: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/all-star-con-tickets-31760691082.

We appreciate you spreading the word about the Summer Intensive. Below the sign off are some suggested social media posts for you. 
Also included is a link to a Google Drive folder containing a PDF you can share with parents and students, and images for use on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Together we can make sure young Black & Latino men can crack the code and break into the tech industry.
