LIFT is an intensive, innovation-driven program where marginalized individuals with diverse backgrounds collaborate to develop solutions for industry-specific challenges. Designed to empower marginalized groups–including women, young people living in under-resourced and rural communities, people with disabilities, and mid-career transitioners who would otherwise be aged out of the job market–this program provides a platform for participants to Learn new skills, Invest in their future, Forge their own path, and Transform into budding tech professionals.
Participants typically have zero prior tech knowledge, and the LIFT initiative helps them transition into tech careers by providing essential skills and fostering a supportive community for their growth and success.

Impact Stories
Spark just as the name implies was sparkling, I had the most amazing time,
the teachings, the help, the lessons, it's a balance of being spoon-fed and figuring it out on your own.
The constructive criticism was a reality check I didn't really know I needed but was very glad I got.
The mentors and the facilitators went out of their own way to ensure that we learnt what we are supposed to.
Shout-out to Goodness, my mentor Kenneth, teammate Blessing and Dubem the all round.
It was an educative ride, that I was glad I embarked on.
