Who we are
Empowering youth through new technologies and coding
Tech Savvy Youth is a 501(C)3 non-profit organization (EIN: 85-4090345). We pride ourselves on creating fun, hands-on, and knowledgeable classes that will empower youth with the skills like the ability to code, build their own computers, prepare for the SAT, solve advanced math problems, and more. In our classes, students will be able to sit at home and virtually learn STEM skills whenever they want. We empower, teach, and support students to learn the skills that will be necessary in the growing IT industry and into the future.
Our Story
Our Founding
In the thick of the pandemic, Vismay Patel was approached by a group of people to teach coding to a small group of kids. While teaching, he noticed how many students did not have access to the necessary resources. This experience is what led to the idea of founding Tech Savvy Youth: to provide access to learning for everyone across the world regardless of their background. So, in August 2020, before his freshman year at Interlake High School in Bellevue, Washington, Vismay started Tech Savvy Youth, a registered 501(C)3 non-profit organization with the purpose of creating fun, hands-on, and knowledgeable workshops that empower students to learn the skills that will be necessary in the growing IT industry.
