The AnitaB.org Systers Pass It Rewards Program We honor Anita Borg’s desire to create a network of women technologists who help each other. The cash prize helps fund women in IT or projects that inspire and support girls and women to get into IT. We encourage recipients to “pass on” the benefits they receive from the award, creating a women’s movement helping women.
These awards are funded by generous donations from Systers, our online community founded by Anita Borg in 1987 and other members of the community.
