WHO WE ARE
Hello, we're
HASHHACKCODE.
We're passionate about making to everyone. Our team of dedicated educators, mentors, and coding enthusiasts believes that technology should be open to all—regardless of background, age, or gender.
We champion equitable education for learners of all cognitive abilities. Our programs are designed to support diverse learning styles, ensuring every student has the chance to excel and innovate in tech.
OUR STORY
In 2019, HashHackCode started with a simple mission: make tech education accessible to everyone. Our founder, Manu Sekar, saw how traditional learning often leaves out those with diverse cognitive abilities.
We're here to change that. Whether you're autistic, a senior citizen, or have different abilities, coding can open doors to independence and opportunity. Technology should enable, not exclude—and we're here to make that happen.
