Mission Bit is an organization doing this on a local scale in SF: https://www.missionbit.com/. It looks like the main difference is that Mission Bit works directly with SF public schools. Personally, it feels like there is plenty more space for non-profits reaching out to underserved communities.

We agree that Mission Bit does great work too! But yeah, we also work directly with SF and Oakland public schools, just not the same ones. Another thing that makes us different is that we focus on preparing our students for paid internships in high schools. Sounds like we agree that more students should access CS education.
I'm sure there are other organizational differences, but ScriptEd also works directly with public schools.
