Education is the foundation of progress, innovation, and community growth. It empowers individuals to unlock their potential and create meaningful change for themselves and the world around them. At Zenva, we believe access to education—particularly in coding and technology—should be accessible to all, offering the tools and skills needed to thrive in an increasingly digital age.
That’s why our ongoing partnership with Humble Bundle throughout 2024 has been so important to us. Together, we’ve been able to support impactful educational charities that are making a difference globally, while also providing our programming and development courses to learners worldwide at an incredibly affordable price. This collaboration represents more than just access to learning—it’s about changing lives through the power of education.
Zenva Humble Bundles in 2024
In 2024, we teamed up with Humble Bundle once again to offer several incredible bundles featuring our coding and development courses. These bundles were:

The Complete 2024 Python Programming Bundle
Kicking off the year, this bundle ran from March 21st until April 25th and featured a variety of courses designed to help learners master Python, one of the most versatile programming languages. In total, 7,487 bundles were sold, raising $15,397 to support NPower.

Learn Game Dev: Godot, Unreal, Unity & GameMaker
This summer bundle, available from July 8th to August 12th, brought together an exciting collection of game development courses covering top engines like Godot, Unreal, Unity, and GameMaker. With 8,115 bundles sold, an impressive $19,198 was raised for Code.org.

Learn Godot 4.3: Complete Course Bundle
With a focus on Godot 4.3, this bundle provided an in-depth look at creating games using this highly popular engine. Running from September 5th to October 13th, it was a standout success, with 12,187 bundles sold and $25,202 raised for NPower.

The Black Friday Rust Bundle
Ending the year on a high note, this bundle focused on Rust, a powerful and modern programming language for building robust and efficient systems. Running from November 28th to December 19th, it raised $5,101 for Girls Who Code through 2,082 bundles sold.
Featured Charities
Although these bundles have concluded, the impact of the charities they supported continues to grow. Below, we’re highlighting these incredible education-focused organizations and the important work they’re doing to empower learners and create opportunities around the world.

NPower
Since 1999, NPower has been empowering individuals across the United States through IT training programs. Focused on serving military veterans and individuals from underserved communities, NPower is on a mission to create equal opportunities in the tech industry, promote diversity, and provide clear pathways out of poverty by equipping students with skills for sustainable careers.
In addition to offering technical training, NPower ensures students have access to essential support, such as shelter, clothing, and other resources, so they can focus fully on their education. This holistic approach has led to remarkable success: 81% of participants graduate from NPower’s programs, and 80% of graduates either secure jobs or continue their education, often achieving a 300% salary increase thanks to the training they received.

Code.org
Founded in 2013, Code.org is a nonprofit dedicated to making computer science education accessible to all students, with a particular focus on K-12 education. By providing high-quality coding resources for teachers and students, Code.org ensures learners from all backgrounds have the opportunity to explore programming. They are also the creators of the global Hour of Code movement, which inspires millions of students every year to try coding for the first time.
To date, Code.org has supported over 2.7 million teachers and 92 million students worldwide, including many from marginalized communities. With its resources used in 180 school districts and translated into multiple languages, the organization continues to expand access to computer science education on a global scale.

Girls Who Code
Founded in 2012, Girls Who Code is a nonprofit dedicated to closing the gender gap in STEM by inspiring and supporting girls to pursue careers in technology. Through a mix of online and in-person programs, they create opportunities for school-aged girls to engage in computer science education during critical developmental years. By fostering early interest in these fields, Girls Who Code aims to empower the next generation of innovators and bring greater diversity to the tech industry.
The impact of Girls Who Code is undeniable. Since its inception, the organization has educated over 670,000 girls through in-person sessions and reached global audiences with an incredible 14.6 billion engagements through online platforms, books, and other media. Their alumni are three times more likely to graduate with computer science degrees, paving the way for a future where women are better represented in STEM fields.
