Hack for Social Impact

Host HSI
in your city

Contact us if you are interested in leading a Hack for Social Impact chapter in your own city. Become the leader and ambassador for impact in your own community.

The model

We found a model of impact that has worked well over the last few years for bringing people together to instigate impact. We have seen it work time and again across our many iterations of events.

  • Building impactful solutions that mission-driven organizations can readily use.
  • Building community around people who are mission driven, inspiring both developers and nonprofits to do more.
  • Rethinking how AI can be used positively in this era of transition for humanity.

We don’t want to keep this secret sauce within ourselves

We are sharing our model with anyone who has the dedication and passion to bring AI to impact, and to usher in positive use of technology.

We have written our playbook extensively, and we provide automation to make hosting your events easier. If you are looking to host Hack for Social Impact in your community, let us know.

What we look for in a chapter lead or team

01

Mission alignment

You care about the impact on humans and the downstream consequences of technology, not just building technology for its own sake, or the next cool application.

02

Dedication

Hosting Hack for Social Impact is an intensive labor of love. We are looking for organizers willing to put the time and effort in: not just to put on a hackathon, but to put grounded thinking into which nonprofits and problem statements will be impactful, and to follow through on the continuation of projects.

03

Mutual interest and fit

We will schedule a call and get to know each other and our working styles. We are happy to provide mentorship and support if you need it, or to be more hands off, as long as you are organizing in the spirit of Hack for Social Impact.

Start the conversation

Tell us about your city and why you want to bring Hack for Social Impact there. We read every one of these and will get back to you to set up a call.
