Introducing new monthly series...✨Community Wins!✨

This month, three learners landed full-time jobs! 🥳

🌱 Happy Earth Day, Codédex Fam. We kept this a secret (sorry!) but you actually helped us plant 1,807 trees. So, thank you.

🤝 Since January 1st, in collab with One Tree Planted, we’ve planted (and are still planting) one tree for EVERY person that signs up for a Codédex Club membership.

🌎 We believe giving back begins not only when we become profitable, but now, in the early days when we get to define the type of company we want to become.

The earth is all we’ve got. So, let’s celebrate it together.

With Love,
The Codédex Team 💌
