About HackYourFuture

HackYourFuture (HYF) is a nonprofit coding program founded in Amsterdam in 2016. We're dedicated to providing education and job opportunities in tech to refugees across the Netherlands, who face barriers entering the labour market. Our mission is to make education and high-quality jobs accessible to everyone, with a primary goal of placing people into tech roles. Through our free 7-month coding program, developed with the help of volunteers and the private sector, we've helped over 400 individuals in the Netherlands alone find rewarding careers in tech.
