Too Long; Didn't Read

There's a huge gap in female gender inclusion in Tech space and that could be due to not knowing about available communities that support the growth of women in Tech. African Tech Communities for ladies are majorly Non - Profit and is free to join. They offer you lots of opportunities like: free laptops, free education, mentorship, social interaction, financial support, jobs etc.. They also offer you a chance to get free laptops and mentorship. Make sure you're part of any of these communities.
