Donate to WIT

SOT Women in Technology (WIT) has experienced remarkable growth over the past few years. Our organization has become a vibrant community, actively engaging members through a variety of enriching activities and events.

One of the highlights of our journey has been the recognition of our members’ professional accomplishments through various awards. These awards not only celebrate individual achievements but also inspire and motivate our entire community. However, the success of these initiatives relies heavily on the generous support of our members.
