As Sowing Seeds with Faith, we have had the opportunity to partner with TECH-Nique on several projects, and we have witnessed firsthand the positive impact that they have had on our community.
TECH-Nique provides data strategy and implementation to our organization at a reduced rate through the LinkUP program. This enables us to improve our digital presence and effectiveness while also supporting job creation and economic growth in our community. We have also have the pleasure of working with graduates from TECH-Nique's TECC Boss and The Butterfly Project programs, which have provided data analytics support to our nonprofit. Their expertise and dedication are instrumental in helping us achieve our mission, and we are grateful for the opportunity to work with such talented individuals.
We appreciate TECH-Nique's commitment to expanding its programs and partnerships to continue creating job opportunities and promoting access to training and education in the tech industry. As a partner organization, we fully support TECH-Nique's efforts and look forward to continuing to work together to make a positive impact on the communities we serve.

Who will work on my projects?
TECH-Nique's LinkUP Apprenticeship offers paid, hands-on training for graduates of The Butterfly Project and TECC Boss programs. Apprentices gain experience in data strategies, website building, coding classes, and other tech services for mission-aligned organizations.
The Butterfly Project prepares young people (16+) from underrepresented groups for in-demand careers in fields like data science while supporting social justice-focused nonprofits in Louisville. Participants learn data analytics skills and collaborate with local nonprofits to leverage data for social justice.
TECC Boss immerses 16 to 21-year-olds in a seven-week technology/entrepreneurship internship, where they create technology solutions for community issues or highlight community assets. Participants learn UX design, app design, data analytics (through The Butterfly Project), web design, game design, and more.
As a LinkUP apprentice, participants work directly with our skilled tech professionals to continue sharpening their skills while supporting meaningful causes.
