RES NON VERBA ASOCIACION CIVIL (known as Civic House) is an international nonprofit organization that provides a space for creation and collaboration to boost and integrate high-impact civic innovation initiatives, promoting and supporting their sustainability. Civic House aims to gather a community of initiatives that use technology for social change, striving to make the Latin American region more equitable. Within Civic House, there are several initiatives as shown on its website, https://www.civic.house/en. All these initiatives share the same legal personality, as Civic House provides legal, accounting, and administrative support, allowing the initiatives to focus solely on impact. The grant we are applying for, in partnership with 3M under their 3M Impact Post-Project Support, is related to the Ada ITW initiative. Since 2017, Ada ITW has been committed to reducing the gender gap in the tech world by providing technology training to women and assisting them in their job integration process. Over the past seven years, we have trained more than 30,000 women, nearly 60% of whom are now employed in the IT sector. We offer a range of courses and bootcamps in technology, along with payment ease programs and full scholarships for women and femininities who cannot afford these courses. We collaborate closely with hundreds of social organizations in the region to facilitate job placement. As our training is delivered virtually, our reach is regional, only limited by language barriers. I would also like to note that the financial statements and legal documentation we will present belong to Civic House (RES NON VERBA), while the annual budget we will share pertains to Ada ITW internally.
