Code the Change will have our first hackathon of Fall, 2011 in partnership
with Facebook from *5pm on October 21 to 5pm on October 22 on the Facebook
campus*. Our second hackathon will be on *November 13 from noon to 8pm at
Stanford*.

If you're interested,
register!<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?hl=en_US&formkey=dERqRklvUnRqTUtpN19neGV1V0ZKemc6MA#gid=0>

At these hackathons, you will get the chance to use your programming and
design skills for social change! We have
projects<http://codethechange.org/projects/2011-10-21-hackathon-orgs>
where
you will improve public health, democracy and governance, education, and
entrepreneurship. You will have the opportunity to work in a variety of
languages.

We have opportunities for people of all experience levels. Everyone will be
working on projects that nonprofit organizations will use to make the world
a better place. People who want a larger leadership role can step up as a
project leader. If you're less experienced, we will match less experienced
and more experienced people in groups so that you'll be able to ask
questions and learn.

The registration deadline is *Sunday, 10/16 at 11:59pm*, so sign
up<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?hl=en_US&formkey=dERqRklvUnRqTUtpN19neGV1V0ZKemc6MA#gid=0>
