Philanthropy and charity

Mata has contributed to the Black Girls Code, Girls Who Code, and Tyrone Gayle Scholars Program. She is vocal in supporting programs or charities that represent minority youths. Regarding Girls Who Code, Mata described her specific passion for the program:

“Essentially, that's about introducing programs/options to them that were not normally obvious or available to us growing up, naturally inspiring them to pursue those paths if they find passion through them. e.g. A female coder is rare. Girls Who Code funds free after school programs that give girls a place to not feel pressured by typical barriers and learn about coding, and maybe one day after participating in these clubs, they'll go to college and become engineers in the future, because that's what they always wanted to do, rather than trying to introduce/force change of grown adults. etc.”
