Our organization is able to help so many children learn technology at an early age because of our amazing volunteers!

Tweens & Technology is in need of volunteers to teach rising 5-8th students Python. We currently have a number of students who have completed the Intro to Python which has provided them with a foundation and we're in need to expand our volunteer team to help support learning objectives for the advanced Python concepts.
