Our mission is to create economic transformation. By training low-income adults to launch and advance careers as software engineers, we help our Fellows go from earning $18,000 to over $90,000 starting salary on average, adding an estimated $2M in lifetime earnings. Since 2013, Pursuit has created ~$1B in total lifetime wage gains, creating lasting economic mobility that spans generations.
Our Pursuit Bash annual fundraiser brings together the best in tech, business, and philanthropy. Each year, we honor industry leaders and celebrate our growing community of Fellows, partners, funders, and volunteers.
