We’re celebrating National Volunteer Month & the incredible 762,592 hours given by Catchafire volunteers! Nonprofits wanted to say thank you - watch the video!
Our students received a grant to create a website for students to find computer science-related resources and they need a logo! This website is going to connect low-income students with opportunities they may not be aware of.
Director of Programs
Mission Bit is dedicated to inspiring and empowering students to unlock their full potential. We build professional pathways for under resourced high school youth across the SF Bay Area by making computer science more accessible through our free project-based courses.
Mission Bit provides free after-school coding courses, workshops, and summer bootcamps to high school students from underserved and underrepresented communities. We offer our students a field trip to a Bay Area tech company, career and college advising related to the technology field, and an opportunity to showcase their group projects to a large community of supporters during our Demo Day event at the end of the term.
Our program's inclusive community fosters positive relationships between students, their peers, and our experienced classroom leaders. Mission Bit brings like-minded individuals together to form long-lasting meaningful connections and gives students all the tools they need to succeed in the tech industry.
A testimonial from our student leader who worked closely with Sajal: "Sajal was able to take the ideas and values that we had and make a logo that correlated with them. He was able to complete the project in less than 2 weeks which was an awesome turnaround time."
The OpenSTART team was very helpful and responsive. They provided me information I needed to make the project successful.
