Urban TXT: Youth discovery technology (txt) needs your help! We will lead a trip to El Salvador from January 12 to February 19, 2022, so that young Salvadoran students can become science and technology entrepreneurs in their communities. Our team will travel to El Salvador to understand how bitcoin affects communities and support underserved communities by exposing them to technical concepts such as building websites using HTML, CSS and JavaScript. We will also engage young people in leadership roles and teamwork to develop a website aimed at solving the problems afflicting their communities. Our goal of $9000 is to help us provide the equipment needed for coding courses from Monday to Friday for young people in El Salvador. Students need computers that can access the Internet to learn coding through our platform hustle n 'code. Hustle n 'code platform will become the main editor for HTML, CSS and JavaScript coding. Our internal platform allows students to establish websites and share them with other members of the coding community. To make this possible, your donation will also help us provide high-speed wireless internet access to all students during the event. Your donation will help us find a place to host this event in El Salvador and provide a suitable collaborative and innovative environment for students. In your donation, you will also sponsor students' lunch that day. Please help us achieve our goals so that we can help Salvadoran youth become leaders of tomorrow.
