On Saturday, October 20th, Camden will once again host Camden’s Code Day, bringing together youth from across the city alongside volunteers from EPAM, Subaru, Penji, Comcast, and many others to teach Camden how to code.
This Camden Code Day is unique, in that it is the first time Hopeworks can actually host it! Thanks to all of our generous and supportive sponsors, we have adequate space to host an event like this one right in downtown Camden.
