Empowering Girls in Tech – The Starting Six

In October 2025, IndeedWeCode partnered with the Howard Fuller Collegiate Academy (HFCA) in Milwaukee, Wisconsin to host the first-ever IWC mini-camp outside of Cleveland.

The IWC/HFCA Empowering Girls in Tech Mini-Camp brought together young Black girls, mentors, and community leaders for a powerful experience rooted in coding, confidence, and connection.

 Meet The Starting Six 

The HFCA Starting Six became the first cohort to complete this immersive mini-camp.

Over three days, they learned HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, collaborated in teams, and presented their websites during Demonstration Day.

 A Full-Circle Moment in Mentorship 

Hear from Dr. Howard Fuller on why this mini-camp is a full-circle moment, bridging decades of mentorship and opportunity for Black girls in tech.

 From Mentorship to Empowerment 

IndeedWeCode Co-Founder Michelle Wilson shares how this mini-camp empowers Black girls to explore, create, and lead in technology, building skills and confidence that extend beyond the classroom.

Thank You for Making IWC Summer Camp 2025 Unforgettable

Because of every camper, mentor, cheerleader, and partner—we did that!

This summer, Black girls in grades 7–12 explored the power of tech, created real-world projects, toured Amazon’s Fulfillment Center, and gained confidence surrounded by people who believe in them.

From big ideas on Demo Day to unforgettable moments in camp classrooms, it’s clear: when Black girls code, they change everything.
