American model Karlie Kloss has teamed up with Flatiron School in New York to create the Kode with Karlie Scholarship, which will give 20 high school girls across the US free tuition to the Introduction to Software Engineering course.

Kloss, who started learning to code at Flatiron School in 2014, and has since worked to encourage other young women to explore computer programming through her work with code.org, commented 'I think it's crucial that young women learn to code as early as possible to ensure that we have a voice and a stake in what the world looks like'.
