Empowering underserved youth overlooking Rio's tech communities.

Our Story

TechMission Rio was born from a vision to bridge technical education with spiritual growth. Recognizing the lack of laptops, hardware access, and coding guidance for youth in underserved favela neighborhoods in Rio de Janeiro, we dedicated our mission to establishing active classroom labs and direct mentorship support.

Our journey began with a small group of Christian tech professionals in the United States and Brazil, united by the calling to utilize their industry expertise for social impact. Over the past three years, we have graduated dozens of students, placing them in software engineering roles across Brazil.

Our Motivation

"Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will."— Romans 12:2

We believe tech is a tool for stewardship. By training minds logically and encouraging spiritual growth in Christ, we prepare young people to lead their communities with high values.
