The $500 awards are for women who are creating opportunities for girls and women in computing. If you have a project that can “pass it on,” this is a great opportunity. (Transparency: I'm the chair of this volunteer committee.)

Thanks Esther! Please send my love to my girl Natasha!As an aside, can I submit on behalf of someone? They don't know I am doing this!

Hmm we have never had anyone submit on another's behalf. We do ask for permission to use the applicant's name etc (if they win), so I would think they have to be involved? Though obviously there is nothing wrong with you helping them craft the application.
