Hack4Impact exists for both nonprofits and students. We connect student software developers with nonprofits and other socially responsible businesses to develop powerful new tools for social change. This enables nonprofits to further their mission and better engage their clients. We are committed to increasing awareness of technology’s potential for good.
We are an driven group of individuals across multiple disciplines.
No matter how early or how late we began programming, we're always eager to
learn more and to push the limits of our technical capabilities.
We are the front-row students, the ones that show up early and leave last.
We are excited about what technology has to offer, and focus on the
possibilities rather than the obstacles.
We are the dreamers, the ones who are working toward large goals and
who will stop at nothing to achieve them.
We look to understand perspectives, situations, and needs, and
therefore are
not afraid of asking or being asked clarifying questions. We make intentional,
well-informed
decisions by understanding the environments we are surrounded by and deeply listening
to our
teammates. We are then able to best mentor our own teammates growth because we can see
where
they are coming from.
Empathy drives every decision we make on behalf of our
clients.
Our empathetic approach provides a North Star to our development process. We’re able to
settle
difficult debates by agreeing and executing on what’s best for our client.
We evaluate the trade offs of our decisions, choose a direction to
head, and
crush our goals. Whether it be personal or professional growth, we avoid mindless
movement and
instead purposefully act.
We work with intention. We understand that at the
end of the
day, Hack4Impact exists to build solutions that are right for our clients and their
users. We
carefully assess the concerns of our users, stakeholders, and clients, to develop a
custom solution
that fits our precise constraints.
Team pictures coming soon!
