Volunteer Today: Give Back to the IT Industry
Have a passion for sharing what you know about tech careers? Want to give back in a meaningful way? We’d love for you to get involved in our programs. Check out TechGirlz, offering some of our most prominent volunteer opportunities.
TechGirlz, a nonprofit program of Creating IT Futures, inspires middle school girls to explore the possibilities of technology and empower their future careers by offering free, fun, hands-on workshops, called TechShopz, on topics ranging from game design to cybersecurity and Artificial Intelligence to 3-D printing.
