<p>HI all,</p>
<p>I also support this and is why I joined as one of the founding
members. In so many communities, women are not given the same
opportunities as men. This group can help celebrate their
achievement and give them a place and mentorship that they need to
succeed. It will also give them a safe space that they can bring
their daughters to learn about technology. In Africa, we have
seen the success of AfChiks in engaging women to learn to be
engineers and the same is true for Tech Women in Afghanistan<br>
