Experimax is announcing a year-long partnership with nonprofit organization Girl Develop It to support women in the tech industry. Experimax is the trusted retailer for the sale and service of pre-owned electronic devices, chiefly the top-selling brands. Together with Girl Develop It, Experimax will provide the tools women need to launch a career in the software development sector.
“As Experimax grows, one of our core values is to share our success by giving back to a great cause; I can’t think of a better way by getting involved than supporting women following their dream to be in the IT industry,” said Kyle Brunette, Brand Leader at Experimax. “We are excited to support Girl Develop It on this journey.” Â
Increasing accessibility for women in tech
Experimax will be providing three scholarships. They will result in the donation of MacBook Air laptops and other tech products to women in the program. There will also be ongoing donations and support throughout the year. At this point, Girl Develop It has impacted 160,000 community members across the country.
“Our mission at Girl Develop It is rooted in accessibility,” said Katie Franco, executive director of the nonprofit. “Shifting our programming to virtual platforms has eliminated previous barriers to entry; however, this model still impedes students without access to the right tools. Thanks to our generous partners at Experimax, Girl Develop It will now have the resources to provide equipment scholarships. By allowing students to learn, practice and advance their skills, regardless of income or opportunity, this partnership further advances the accessibility of our programming.” Learn more: www.girldevelopit.com.
