Code for Change – September 28 – October 12

At Code for Change we invite you to join us as we remix hacking for good.
We are calling all coders, designers, data scientists, and other technologists to participate in new kind of civic technology competition in New York this Fall. We spent the summer working with nonprofits, local government and others from across the city and nation to bring you well-defined, game-changing challenges that call for applications with the potential to vastly improve lives of people in New York and beyond.

In addition to doing good work, a $10,000 grand prize will be awarded on our demo day October 12th, 2012. Additional cash, in-kind and mentorship prizes are being announced weekly.
