Siegel Family Endowment Makes Ongoing Commitment to Computer Science Education

23 October, 2018

Amidst the hustle and bustle of New York City streets, partnerships are made every day that impact the trajectory of business and industry. Some of these partnerships happen quietly, but are no less significant, like the one between CSforALL and the Siegel Family Endowment.

“We use the term institutional home,” says Thea Charles, head of computational thinking at Siegel Family Endowment (SFE). In practical terms, CSforALL, an advocacy organization that grew from a 2016 summit convened at the White House to foster the budding national computer science education community, now has a long term place to call home and shared offices with like-minded leaders at SFE.

“It gives CSforALL the operational support to be able to look at the national landscape and put attention on the things that need attention,” says Ruthe Farmer, CSforALL’s chief evangelist, and a former CS policy advisor in the Obama White House. “We’re better able to serve as an honest broker to build meaningful relationships between the organizations doing the work and the partners they need to be successful.”
