Reshma Saujani left her job as a lawyer in 2010 to run for a government office. She didn't win, but she wanted to make the world a better place.

In 2012, Reshma started Girls Who Code. This organization supports girls who are interested in computer science. It also aims to socialize girls so they have perseverance and are not afraid of failure.

Reshma's idea worth spreading is that we should teach girls, and all children, that we succeed not by aiming for perfection, but by knowing that we will make mistakes, and being brave enough to try anyway.
