The NCWIT AiC Impact Award honors Aspirations in Computing Community Members and TECHNOLOchicas for their incredible efforts to create opportunities and grow interest in computing.

Award recipients are selected based on their efforts to build and creatively offer hands-on learning opportunities in computing and career exploration and to bring together advocates and allies of various backgrounds through computing-related events and community groups.

Please feel free to check out the list of 2023 Impact Award Recipients to learn about all of their inspiring accomplishments.

STEM Together! Take the pledge today. Designate donations to the “2. Collaborative Support” Fund and designate Texas to support the work of TxGCP.
Women constitute only 35% of the STEM workforce. Women continue to face significant barriers in STEM professions. Some states may eliminate university programs and ban strategies that support girls in STEM. We are taking action, and we can’t do it alone. Stand with girls; let’s STEM together. https://ngcproject.org/stemtogether
