How to Help
Host an Hour of Code – at work, in your community, or local school
Millions of people of all ages have learned an Hour of Code, a one-hour introductory course designed to demystify computer science and show that anybody can learn the basics.
Make a generous donation
We’re working to give every student the opportunity to learn computer science — online and in schools where we’ll establish permanent courses and train teachers. For every Rand you donate a child learns.
Ask your school to teach computer science
Encourage local elementary schools to teach our elementary curriculum or recruit teachers to attend a one-day workshop – at no cost. Or partner with Code.org to bring permanent courses into middle and high schools.
Advocate for computer science locally
Petition your state to allow computer science to count towards math or science high school graduation credits. And promote computer science in your area with these stats, quotes and videos.
Are you a software engineer? Help spread computer science
Offer help to local teachers
If you’re already a software engineer, there are many opportunities to get involved locally. Volunteer to teach our other courses to local student with this guide. And sign up to hear about volunteer opportunities near you.
