We aim to contribute to our country's digitalization and spread the awareness of raising young generations through education. Until today, we have given coding training to over 228,000 children in 81 provinces. We constantly update our educational content. Besides Scratch training, we continue to improve our children's digital competencies with digital training on various subjects. Also, we have recently updated our project's website with our new educational content. We provide extensive information on everything, from coding to cyberbullying, via this website. We believe our updated website will become a fundamental resource for teachers, students, and anyone seeking to get an education. We will continue our activities, aiming to raise a generation that does not only consume but also produces."

Mr. Sezai Hazır, the Board Chair of Habitat Association , also stated:

We feel right happy and proud of constantly expanding the scope of our Coding Tomorrow project, which we implemented with the collaboration of the Vodafone Turkey Foundation and touches the lives of thousands of children. The previous years have shown us that learning how to code is as important as literacy. With our project, we develop processes that guide our country's digital transformation, thereby contributing to the prepare our children for the digital world of the future. Thanks to our website implemented within our project, We will popularize our training such as 'Scratch', 'Tinkercad', 'Artificial Intelligence', and '21st-Century Skills' and new content such as 'Designing Games with Unity', 'Mobile Application Development with Appinventor', and 'Cyberbullying'. We believe our website is a crucial step towards digital transformation and will contribute to our project significantly. We believe the 21st century will be a century that will allow individuals to transform and lead societies with their digital skills."
