Join us in celebrating the amazing Ann Arbor-based women in tech community that Girl Develop It has helped to build up over the last year. Hear brief remarks from some incredible students, instructors and volunteers whose lives have been impacted by their involvement with GDI and mingle with community members who’ve supported the growth and success of Girl Develop It throughout the year.
By the numbers, we've grown into a community of over 900 members locally, 25 instructors, 40 volunteers and have held almost 50 events including classes, informational talks, and happy hours.
What's the best way to commemorate those achievements and our 1-year milestone? By throwing a party of course!
Join us at the The Forge 4.0 by Pillar on Thursday, June 4, for a night of celebration. All are welcome - bring along family, friends, and colleagues. Get dressed up or come as you are to share a toast with us - to the accomplishments we’ve all made as a community! We'll have food (by Pillar's own top chef - Tracy!), drinks, testimonials from our community, and more.
We've invited over 40 local, hiring companies to join us - so there will be plenty of opportunities for networking and engaging with the Ann Arbor tech community!
All proceeds from the event will go toward Girl Develop It programming and scholarships to help women, including underrepresented and unemployed women, take our classes to further their careers.
