Apps and Girls is a Tanzanian award-winning social enterprise founded in 2013. Their mission is to empower girls and young women to create the world they want to live in using technology. They believe that tech is the reality of the future and entrepreneurship is a driving force. They work to break barriers such as a non-existent support system, lack of role models, and prevailing gender stereotypes in the field of ICT.

To achieve their goal, Apps and Girls implements an innovative cyclical process that includes advanced coding training, entrepreneurship training, mentorship, and incubation. They create coding clubs in secondary schools, an offline and online women's tech entrepreneurship incubator, and provide e-mentoring to match emerging tech entrepreneurs with mentors. They focus on girls and young women from both privileged and underprivileged backgrounds, at secondary school, university, or out-of-school, with a mission to reduce the gender gap in ICT and empower more change-makers in Africa. By investing in girls, Apps and Girls believes they are planting a seed in fertile grounds. Join them in their mission and be the change you want to see!
