Hack for Change comes to SF this June
On June 18th and 19th, 50 lucky developers will convene in San Francisco to spend 24 hours building developing mobile applications that are meant to leave our world better off.
Hack for Change is an initiative of Change.org, a website that helps people create and dispense online petitions.
As Hack for Change mentions on its site:
"Through technology we have the potential to democratize politics, to hold power accountable, and to find innovative solutions to the world’s problems.
So, we’re inviting 50 engineers and designers who believe they can make the world a better place to spend 24 hours to build a web or mobile app that can help advance positive change."
Winners will receive $10,000 which is meant to help continue building out their application.
