Software as a tool for social good
We are a student-run 501(c)(3) organization that empowers engineers, designers, activists, and humanitarians to create lasting social change by developing projects for local nonprofits. We foster the wider adoption of software as a tool for social good.
Our events
Social
We love our work because of our amazing members! We host social events so that all of our members can get to know each other and take a break from their school work. We've hosted game nights, events with other clubs, gone on hikes, and taken many trips to Slodoco. We also have a banquet every year to celebrate everyone's hard work.
Educational
We start each year off with bootcamp, which is your chance to learn what Hack4Impact Cal Poly is all about! During bootcamp, our members attend workshops and get familiar with the tools they will use on their project team. Throughout the year we also host tech talks and speaker events with professors and other professionals.
Giving back
We try to learn about our nonprofit partners' missions and work beyond our technical projects as well! We volunteer with nonprofits we partner with for the year so that our members learn and feel more connected to the nonprofits' work, regardless of their project team. From planting trees and environmental cleanups to taking care of horses, we love to stay involved in our community!
