  <h1><span class="main-headline">About Us</span></h1>
  <img src="assets/dcft-members.jpg">
  <p class="main-intro">DCFemTech was founded in 2014 in an effort to amplify the efforts of women in tech organizations. It is a collective, brought to life by the many, many women and minorities in DC tech organizations that it represents. Over the years, we’ve grown to include more than a dozen member organizations and supporting groups. As our community began to grow, we listened to members’ needs. We expanded to welcome any woman who was interested in lowering the barriers to entry for women in tech and who wanted to play a role in shaping this supportive, inclusive ecosystem.</p>
