Hack 4 Good 2023: Making Real Impact, Together

 📅 Friday, Nov. 3rd – Sunday, Nov. 5th, 2023

📍 The eFactory | Springfield, Missouri

 Join us this year this year as we shape futures by developing an app for local non-profit, “Good Dads” 

 Developers, imagine an app that could change lives and leave legacies. This year we’re partnering with Good Dads to help create an app that strives to deepen father-child bonds, and with your expertise, this vision can come alive. Starting in Southwest Missouri, their reach is poised to grow exponentially. With over 600 fathers already positively impacted, your innovation could touch thousands more. Seize this moment – together, we can craft a legacy!

Free registration is available for the first 80 participants, thanks to our Weekend Event Sponsor Next Level Solutions and all of our other Sponsors. Food and drinks will be provided. Cash prizes will be awarded to the top 3 teams.

Opening Session – Hack 4 Good 2019

Make a Lasting Impact

Hack 4 Good chooses a project that can be completed in a weekend and will make a lasting impact on our community.

H4G would not be possible without your participation. We are able to adopt ideas and code from multiple teams as we continue to work on projects at OpenSGF events after the competition ends.

We hope you can join us at Hack 4 Good 2023 and our ongoing OpenSGF events!

Challenge Yourself

Improve your existing skillsets and learn new technologies while working in a fast-paced team environment.

Teams will use existing skills and learn new technologies and skills when working together to complete this year’s community project in less than 48 hours.

College students will have the option to make a difference in our community by participating in an easier technical project that does NOT require experience designing a website or mobile application.

Make Connections

Connect with like-minded Designers and Developers

Hack 4 Good is a group effort. If you do not already have a team, we will group you with other designers and developers who are working toward a common goal — improving our community.

Receive Recognition

Top teams receive awards, cash prizes, and glory!

Each team has an opportunity to demo their code/design to a panel of judges who score the project based on functionality, design appeal, and architecture.

The top 3 teams receive awards and cash prizes. The winning team is encouraged to help H4G launch a useable project with ongoing support from our H4G volunteers, including local designers and developers through our ongoing OpenSGF events.
