Supporting apps that have a positive social and environmental impact
Hi there,
I am happy to be part of this comunity. I'm a Software engineer who launched a self-funded monthly Hack-A-Thon to build apps that have a positive social and environmental impact.
The goals of the Hack-A-Thon is to:
- Have a positive social and environmental impact
- Boost visibility and Diversity
- Contribute to the ecosystem
- Source talents
- Create an awareness
- Self-Fund teams with great social impact
- Give back to the community
I was planning to crowdfund or get sponsors for my next events to recover my funds untill I start reading about the blochchain and steemit .
My first event was about building apps that impact Africa. And my next event is:
- Hackathon to build 100 apps that fix 100 real problems in Puerto Rico
- On Dec 16, 2017, 10:00 AM
- At Impact Hub Berkeley, 2150 Allston Way #400 Berkeley, CA 94704.
- link to Eventbrite!
Thank you again for allowing me to be part of this amazing community
Hello & Cheers!! I'm a content detection and information bot. You are receiving this reply because a short link or links have been detected in your post/comment. The purpose of this message is to inform your readers and yourself about the use of and dangers of short links.
To the readers of the post: Short links are provided by url shortening services. The short links they provide can be useful in some cases. Generally their use is benign. But as with all useful tools there are dangers. Short links can be used to hide all sorts of things. Quite frequently they are used to hide referral links for instance. While not dangerous this can be deceptive. They can also be used to hide dangerous links such as links to phishing sites, sites loaded with malware, scam sites, etc. You should always be extremely cautious before clicking on one. If you don't know and trust the poster don't click. Even if you do you should still be cautious and wary of any site you are sent to. It's always better to visit the site directly and not through a short link.
To the author of the post: While short links may be useful on some sites they are not needed on steemit. You can use markdown to format your links such as this link to steemit. It's as simple as
[steemit](https://steemit.com)Unlike short links this allows the reader to see where they are going by simply hovering over the link before they click on it.Hey, it is awesome to see others in the space. I would love to connect and for you to check out our work with the Digital Reserve. I believe you will find it of interest and maybe we can create together.
