🤖❤️ AI for Kindness: Collaborative Hackathon

Join us for a heartwarming day of collaborative creation at AI for Kindness! From 10 am to 5 pm, we'll harness the power of AI to design and prototype small, impactful tools that sprinkle a little more kindness into the world.
We'll kick things off with a collaborative ideation session (10 am - 12 pm), followed by a break. Then, get ready to bring your ideas to life during our prototyping build time (1 pm - 3 pm). Finally, we'll celebrate our creations with presentations at 4 pm before wrapping up at 5 pm.
No prior AI expertise is necessary – just bring your enthusiasm and a desire to build something beautiful together. Let's code for kindness!

### 🧩 Who should come?

We warmly welcome anyone with a passion for kindness and an awareness of challenges or initiatives within our community. While we'll be using AI (which can be surprisingly accessible!), the most valuable contribution comes from understanding real-world needs. So, if you're involved in community work or see opportunities to spread kindness, we'd especially love to have you!
