Let's Code opens doors with free Blacksburg programming workshops
A Blacksburg nonprofit offers free volunteer taught classes in computer programming, drawing a diverse mix of locals from Virginia Tech students to engineers and kids. Since February it has run 16 sessions teaching Python web development and robotics, with over 200 locals served. Courses are free to attendees with some low costs for materials, and space and pizza donated by the community. The effort aims to expand to Roanoke and beyond, with open online materials and a pledge to keep education free and accessible.
