Dear Powercoders supporters,

This is just an update. We are now in the second part of the project and only five weeks are left.

Last week was the career week where the students were interviewed by companies and now they are waiting to know where they will do their internships and hopefully a new door for a bright future to build their lives once again.

On Friday, 20th of July, we have the graduation party and it is our great pleasure to have you there, please check our website fr the details: www.powercoders.org.

Lots of Love, Hussam and Team

Dear friends of Powercoders,

Thank you for your precious help. The campaign ends in 26 hours and we did not make it yet. Therefore we have to ask you once again for your support. Could you give us a last boost and share it once again in your network?

Thanks so much, Hussam & team

We would like to express our deep gratitude and thanks for backing and supporting our project. Unfortunately, we did not reach as many people as needed by halftime (CHF 4’273 of CHF 10’000). Therefore we have to ask you once again for your precious help. Could you recommend us personally in your network - we know that personal recommendations work by far the best?

And please share our project on your social network: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PowerCodersHQ/posts/1603792599674340 Twitter: https://twitter.com/PowerCodersHQ/status/978267908953567237 Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwemakeit.com%2Fprojects%2Fpowercoders-lausanne&title=Powercoders+Lausanne&mini=true

Thank you so much and hope to see you in Lausanne, Hussam & Team
