Join us in Supporting #VetsWhoCode

O’Reilly believes strongly in the value of increasing diversity at our conferences and creating a productive and inclusive environment for all participants.

To support diversity in the tech community, we're raising funds to send to #VetsWhoCode while Software Architecture registration is open. #VetsWhoCode is a non-profit dedicated to filling the nation’s technical skills gap with America’s best. #VetsWhoCode uses technology to connect and train veterans remotely in web development to ease career transition for military veterans and to give military spouses skills to provide stability as they move to support their families. #VetsWhoCode prepares them to enter the civilian work force with tangible skills for new careers.

We ask that you join us in supporting this worthy organization by making a donation when you sign up. O'Reilly will match those donations at the end of the conference. We wouldn't usually make a financial contribution selected by default, but we hope this underscores how crucial we think it is to support diversity.

Thank you for considering this project. We welcome your thoughts about this or other successful diversity efforts you've encountered. Send suggestions, comments, and feedback to diversity@oreilly.com.
