We were featured by Facebook Japan!

Facebook Japan featured CANVAS and our programming education outreach project, “Programming for ALL”!

“Programming for ALL” is an initiative aimed at providing programming education experiences to a diverse range of children—including those living in remote areas, children with disabilities, and girls—who currently have limited opportunities to participate or have low participation rates. We work in partnership with schools and communities nationwide to achieve this goal.

This fiscal year, we’ll continue to bring programming experiences to children in collaboration with people from various regions!
