WIT Single Mothers’ Program Graduate Success Network
The Single Mothers’ Program is not currently accepting new applicants.
Help power the next phase of support for alumni of the WIT Single Mothers’ Program
The Graduate Success Network helps alumni of the WIT Single Mothers’ Program secure their first tech job and succeed long-term.
In the first phase of the WIT Single Mothers’ Program, participants earned certifications in cybersecurity and IT fundamentals, connected with mentors, and learned how to build strong resumes and show up confidently in job interviews. The Graduate Success Network builds on that foundation, helping alumni transition successfully into tech careers and build financial stability.
Subscribe to our free WIT Monthly newsletter to learn about WIT events and support for women interested in tech careers across industries.

The Single Mothers’ Program has been so awesome.
The workshops are phenomenal. This program really is a total package and a dream come true.
I would love to have an organization just like this but expand it to young men. I planned on giving back so much to this organization and I will be volunteering soon.
“WIT’s Single Mother Program checks all the boxes so we are ready to succeed. I am immensely thankful to them and to everyone who supports this organization that empowers mothers to become the best version of themselves by providing support at all levels.”
“I truly am thankful for the WIT Single Mothers’ Program for this wonderful opportunity!
I have experienced a chance to be accepted for who I was, am encouraged to pursue technology and to not have to hide my shortcomings. I feel comfortable sharing my experiences, insecurities and really feel connected with a group who is always willing to help & uplift. I honestly cannot wait to be able to give back.”
