<P>Join <STRONG>Code for KC</STRONG> for an exciting two day hackathon where we write apps that solve community problems. Do you love coding, design, project management, or community engagement? How does working on open source while solving practical problems sound to you? Then join us for this exciting two day event! <A HREF="http://hack-kc.org/" TARGET="_blank" TITLE="Hack KC" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Learn more at hack-kc.org</A>.<BR></P>
<P>The fun doesn't stop there either! Projects continue well after the hackathon until they are complete. Some apps from previous years have stayed on board for years!<BR><BR><SPAN>We want to address real problems in our community, such as environmental issues, transportation problems, and many more using open source coding networks.  Our projects are created around the idea that there are real issues in our community that can have a technological solution.  Through collaboration and networking we create a community-based solution and follow through with a team of coders, designers, writers (and more!) over the next six months or more to implement that solution.</SPAN><BR></P>

<P>Code for KC is a program of KC Digital Drive, and an affiliate of the national Code for America Brigade network. We work on civic tech projects throughout the year at our weekly Monday night hack nights. <A HREF="http://hack-kc.org/" TARGET="_blank" TITLE="Hack KC" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Hack KC</A> is an annual hackathon that serves as a kickoff event for many of our projects. Unlike a typical weekend hackathon, our schedule is less about what can be built in a weekend or who can build the best or fastest, and more about what we can build to benefit the community.<IMG SRC="https://ssl.gstatic.com/ui/v1/icons/mail/images/cleardot.gif"></P>
