Who We Are
CodeBoxx Foundation advances economic mobility through technology workforce development and entrepreneurship. We equip individuals from under-resourced and historically excluded communities with in-demand STEAM skills, then extend that support beyond training — helping graduates move from career readiness into business ownership through seed funding, mentorship, and structured venture support.
What We Do
Close the Opportunity Gap
With a focus on mentoring, education, and financial support, we provide pathways for better-paying, secure job opportunities to help underserved populations transform their lives and careers.
Enhance Quality of Life
We provide pathways for people to confidently navigate economic hurdles. Our partnerships in workforce development programs address the tech talent gap and housing affordability crisis by enabling community members to secure careers in tech, earn higher salaries, and afford better housing options.
Drive Dynamic Growth
We provide a skilled workforce to enable entrepreneurs, startups, and community organizations to succeed in our technology-enabled global economy.
Accessible & Inclusive.
At the CodeBoxx Foundation, we believe that talent is everywhere, but opportunity is not. We are dedicated to closing the opportunity gap by making STEAM education and career pathways accessible to individuals of all backgrounds, regardless of economic status.
Our programs are designed to remove barriers—whether financial, geographic, or systemic—so that everyone has the chance to build the skills needed for success in today’s technology-driven world. By offering training in easily accessible locations throughout Tampa Bay and creating inclusive, adaptable learning experiences, we ensure that no one is left behind.
Through strong partnerships with local organizations, we reach underserved communities and connect individuals with the education, mentorship, and job opportunities they need to thrive in STEAM fields. Together, we are building a more diverse, innovative, and equitable workforce for the future.
Our Holistic Approach
A robust and qualified workforce is central to a healthy community. A holistic approach to workforce development requires funding and resources that address the entirety of an individual's needs; it goes beyond the technical training to include necessary support measures such as child services, living stipends, and tuition coverage. By creating an environment conducive to comprehensive immersion and success, individuals are fully empowered to transform their lives and careers.
We invite nonprofits and individuals to partner with us to broaden our reach and deepen our impact. Together, through recruiting and holistic support infrastructure, we can uplift our communities and change lives.
