Janelle Richards, a producer at NBC News, traveled to Kenya to report on the technology industry. She visited one school that is working to develop the next generation of software developers in Kenya and also interviewed the founder of a non-profit that is teaching girls in Nairobi how to code and build their own websites. Richards made one final stop at the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, an organization that is working to stop poaching in Kenya and save the lives of elephants.
