Join NOLA_CODE, a program of South Coast Code for a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, for a night of celebration at Urban South Brewery from 6–9 PM on October 10, 2024. NOLA_CODE increases access to computer science education for K-12 students in New Orleans. We are a collaborative of local educators and tech professionals who partner with schools to provide age-appropriate instruction in coding, computer engineering, rudimentary robotics, and more. In today’s tech-driven world, where proficiency is critical for meaningful employment, NOLA_CODE equips children with coding skills they otherwise wouldn't have, moving Louisiana to the forefront of tech innovation. As a non-profit, fundraising is the lifeblood of our work. We invite concerned citizens of Louisiana, especially those in New Orleans, to join us for this exciting evening of fun, food, drinks, interactive coding demos, and live music from Alexis and Sam from Sweet Crude, performing as Alexis and the Sanity. The event will also showcase our students’ incredible projects. Tickets are available on Eventbrite by searching "CODE DAT" or visiting https://nolacode.org/events. All proceeds benefit NOLA_CODE’s mission to empower inner-city students through tech education. Can’t attend? Donate at https://nolacode.org/support (Memo: “CODE DAT”).
