>>> 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
