Lend a helping hand to women in difficult situations and become part of their journey towards a better future.
Changing lives for 10 years

At Czechitas, we have been opening up the world of technology to women for a decade. In that time, we've helped write hundreds of powerful stories about women who have found the courage to make big changes in their lives despite the obstacles they face.

Thanks to the Czechitas Foundation, over the past two years we have helped 22 women who could not afford to study at our standard subsidised rate. And yet they are the ones who need a well-paid job in IT.

How many more will we help? That's up to you. Join us and help other women in difficult circumstances to write a new, brighter chapter in their story.
Scholarship holders' stories
"The Digital Academy was an irreplaceable experience for me and I am happy that the Czechitas Foundation decided to help not only me but also other women in this way."
Magdalena, Digital Academy graduate

"I see the Digital Academy as a first step towards improving our living situation and also as an opportunity to show my daughter a better role model for her life."
Barbora, Digital Academy graduate

"Thanks to Czechitas and the Czechitas Foundation, I know that IT is definitely my career path. I believe that if I find a job in this field, I will not leave it. At most I will change my position."
Alex, Digital Academy graduate

How is your support changing lives?
Over the past two years, thanks to our donors, we have helped 22 women on their way to a better future.
Every crown you donate means the opportunity for a woman to change her life and find a stable job in a promising IT field.
We fully cover the tuition fees of the chosen Czechitas Digital Academies (Data, Cybersecurity, Testing and Web) and now for the AI Transformation Manager course. The cost to help one woman start writing a new chapter of her story is up to 87,000 CZK.

70% of female employees get a pay rise
IT is a high-demand industry, with 77% of companies in the Czech Republic with open ICT positions having difficulty finding suitable candidates. Our female graduates are helping to fill this gap, and 70% of them will also see a significant increase in their salaries. In addition to higher salaries, 90% of them enjoy the satisfaction of a new job that offers stability, career growth opportunities and a perspective that is not threatened by automation.

Be part of a life-changing experience
Every crown you donate is more than just financial support. It's the promise of a new start, a more secure future and a dream come true. It's proof that even the seemingly unattainable can be within everyone's reach - all it takes is courage and the helping hand of someone who believes in the power of change.

Give the gift of change. Give the gift of a future. Give hope.

Together we write stories that change lives.
Nadační fond Czechitas
Give a helping hand to women in difficult situations and be part of their journey towards a better future.
Czechitas empowers women to break the boundaries of the IT world, bring much needed diversity to technology and change the future - not just of women, but of society. In this way, we promote equal opportunities and give women the chance to become experts in a field where they are underrepresented. Czechitas Endowment Fund then helps fund this journey for the disadvantaged.

We all have a story, but not all of us have the opportunity to tell it. Our mission is to provide that opportunity - to open the door to the digital world for those who, without our help, would stand at its threshold. A door to opportunity, to growth, to limitless potential. Every woman we support is a testament to the fact that with the right partner at your side, even the biggest obstacles can be overcome.

We give the gift of education to the women we support. Scholarships are available for all Czechitas Digital Academies (Data, Cybersecurity, Testing and Web) and now for the AI Transformation Manager course.

The cost for one woman to change her life through our courses is up to 87,000 CZK. The more money we can raise, the more women we can help on their way to a successful IT career and a happier life.

Women interested in the scholarship must describe and document their difficult economic situation in their application. We have a number of evaluation criteria that will be scored, including a minimum score threshold.

The support of our donors is not only a financial gift to us, but also a vote of confidence in our work and our vision. It is an investment in the future that will pay off many times over - not just for those who receive it, but for society as a whole. 

Thank you for every contribution, every word of support and for being part of our journey. Together, we are creating a world where equality and justice are part of every success story.

Only Sky is the limit!
