Organizations We Love (OWL)

These are the AMAZING 309 organizations that strive to make tech and info/cybersecurity opportunities and experiences accessible to everyone [1,2,3], and so they are the Organizations We Love (OWL)! The acronym OWL is also special because it is Temple’s mascot and was initially adopted as a symbol because the university began as a night school for ambitious young people of limited means – this really captures Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) efforts and relevance in so many ways. Since the creation of this page in March 2021, this resource has been accessed over 19.3K times!

If you aren’t already following these organizations on Twitter, please do – show them some LOVE! And let us know who we have missed or mislabeled! We want to improve, learn, and give these OWL our respect and love!!
