Centershift strives to shape a stronger, more resilient community by providing educational opportunities for community members, said James Hafen, president and CEO of Centershift.

We are excited about being able to help support both their programs and their presence in our area.

"Girl Develop It - SLC is so grateful for the support of local companies like Centershift, added Stacie Farmer, co-founder of the local Girl Develop It chapter. "Together we can remove the stereotype surrounding programmers and will work hard to create a diverse community where everyone feels welcome and that their skills are needed. We're challenging old ideas about who can be a programmer, and we're strengthening the field by opening doors for people who can bring fresh perspectives and unique skills to the table.
