(http://geeknewscentral.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/13-150x150.jpg)Girls Code for Free is an initiative by Microsoft that celebrates International Woman’s day. I talk extensively tonight about providing opportunities to our children that let them get exposure across a lot of disciplines. I also discuss the power of the Ohana’s Audience and how you and I can expand our sphere of influence to do better good.
