About

Why we started Rootcode Foundation?

Rootcode Foundation, our non-profit initiative is built on the belief that real transformation begins in schools. Regardless of their backgrounds or hardships, we believe every child deserves a future filled with promise.

Our vision extends far beyond one school. In the years ahead, we aim to uplift underprivileged students across Sri Lanka, not just changing their lives but also the communities they call home.

How we made a difference

We committed an entire year to a school visiting every other week to teach children all about technology.
We conducted comprehensive teacher training, equipping them with the technical knowledge to build upon our efforts in the years to come.
We initiated a scholarship fund, and our generous Rootcoders joined hands to support deserving students to achieve their dreams.
We built a modern computer lab consisting of essential resources to enhance the learning environment.
