Canadian charity recommendations

Hi Everyone!

I'm looking to donate some money to a charity that is focused on helping children learn how to code.
I've always heard that lots of charities are scams, and I was hoping to get the opinions of you fine folks about a good charity to donate to!

    I generally use Charity Navigator to give any charity a once-over before I donate, though I don't know whether you could specifically search for Canadian child coding charities.

    There's Canada Learning Code (formerly Ladies Learning Code). It's not just for kids but they do a lot of workshops and coding camps for kids. I volunteered for one of their camps a few years ago...

    I volunteered for one of their camps a few years ago and can tell you it definitely was not a scam.
