A Detroit love story… congratulations to former #CivicTech fellow Ivoire Morrell and The Children's Center of Wayne County Director of Corporate Philanthropy Kapria Jenkins, who found each other amid their work in civic tech.
Here's Ivoire's story:
“Back in my superhero days as Microsoft’s Civic Tech Fellow, I attended Detroit’s Broadband Networks event on October 3, 2017. I attended the event in hopes to discover more about the digital divide in the city but ended up discovering, or should I say, meeting someone who would forever change my destiny — Kapria Jenkins. Radiating with beauty, with joy overflowing from her presence, her spirit drew me closer. I approached Kapria, not knowing that she was my neighbor (we lived on the same street, a few houses apart, but were complete strangers). Meeting Kapria that October day would spark a series of miraculous events including me finding my calling as Youth Pastor at Mosaic Midtown Church in Detroit and finding my wife. Kapria and I are a few weeks away from uniting in holy matrimony.”
Our congrats to the happy couple!

Happy Computer Science Education Week!
This #CSEdWeek, we reached out to local leaders in tech, both at Microsoft and in our community, and asked how computer science education has impacted them from their early education to today.
“My journey into STEM has taken me from a political analyst to a software engineer to now working as a data engineer and budding data scientist at a leading open source technology platform company, GitHub. Along the way I have developed applications that explore deep social justice questions to developing tools that empower technologists to write code and contribute to open source; all of this is possible because of the amount of free and accessible computer science education resources there exist today. As a first-generation Latinx college graduate, I do my best to leave more than I take and in STEM I have been able to give back as an educator, teaching Python through organizations like PyLadies and Girl Develop It, speaking internationally at technical conferences, and blogging beginner friendly technical content on my website at lorenamesa.com.”

Growing leadership through military skills at Project RELO - Microsoft Chicago
Military experience is a lesson in leadership, drive, and communication—and no one knows this better than Project RELO, an organization that educates the business community on the value of hiring military veterans.
In their leadership mission, executives spend three days at a US military base to gain basic military training and witness veterans as meticulously trained and highly effective leaders in action.
This year, we were lucky to have Scott Emigh, CTO One Commercial partner at Microsoft, join Project RELO and experience this mission firsthand. #VeteransDay

Parkman Coders: Empowering students
“To empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more” stands at the core of not only Microsoft, but also super librarian “Q” Goss, or simply “Miss Q,” as her students call her. Q is a self-taught coder on a mission to educate the children living in the Detroit neighborhood surrounding the Parkman Branch Library through the power of STEAM-driven programming. Her approach is real, fresh and engaging, and the results have been nothing short of amazing.
The Parkman Coders are in their third year of realizing the power of coding and how it can be applied to all areas of their lives, both now and in the future. Together with the ongoing support of Microsoft and the Detroit Public Library Foundation, “Q” is creating an opportunity of exposure to the future and the success that waits within.

We are continuing to focus on corporate social responsibility, and taking a look at Microsoft and their mission. 👏
In 2015, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella fine-tuned Microsoft’s mission statement making it more concise and, at the same time, more broadly applicable and aspirational. That mission became “To empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more.” We at Microsoft strive to embody this mission through several community empowerment initiatives, mostly centered around STEM education and human achievement.
Through Microsoft’s Technology Education and Literacy in Schools program (TEALS https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/teals) we have a multifaceted approach towards raising the STEM competency of educators and students throughout the United States, with the objective of closing the computer science (CS) gap and providing young people with the skills they need to build computer science careers. The TEALS program is a Microsoft Philanthropies program that connects classroom teachers with tech-industry volunteers to create sustainable CS programs. Volunteers support teachers as they learn to teach CS independently over time. This program has been operating since 2009.
Within the Chicago area, Microsoft Chicago has been participating in the Illinois Science and Technology Institute STEM Challenge since 2014. Microsoft employees serve as mentors to high school students over the course of several months to solve an industry authentic problem together and, in the process, build professional skills that students take with them beyond the project. During the course of the STEM Challenge, students are exposed to STEM career paths through interaction with their mentors, as they work on product and solution development to problems related to corporate and societal needs.
Beyond STEM, Microsoft’s corporate responsibility programs span across the fields of accessibility, privacy & cybersecurity, and environmental responsibility. A recent pledge that Microsoft has made is to become carbon negative by 2030. You can read more about this commitment here: https://blogs.microsoft.com/blog/2020/01/16/microsoft-will-be-carbon-negative-by-2030 and find an overview of all of our corporate responsibility initiatives at

Loved being a part of Chicago AI Days hosted at Microsoft Chicago and talking about how we help brands fight #climate change through innovative #AI! Our co-founders Dan Ratner and Melissa A Anderson laid out a plan for creating meaningful action — asking people to pledge to change behavior and then using #artificial_intelligence to serve those people with real content (not ads) that reinforces that behavior to create a strong loop of change and action. Our VP of engineering Eric Kingery talked about what makes that possible with our robust machine learning classifiers — just 3 years ago we classified about 100 articles per day and manually reviewed them, but now we classify over 10K articles per day! That creates incredible opportunities to reach people with relevant content and helps us do even more good.
