About September event

We are pleased to announce our 13th event in Auckland at GridAKL, 101 Pakenham Street West, Auckland.

To be part of this amazing weekend, all you need to do is get a ticket from Eventbrite (https://www.eventbrite.co.nz/e/impactnpo-auckland-charity-hackathon-weekend-september-2017-tickets-36478344711).

You will be volunteering your weekend (Saturday 2nd September and Sunday 3rd September from 9am to 5 pm) where we all will be giving back to the community by providing IT solutions to charities. We will be providing the food and drinks this weekend to keep you well fed and energised!

A big thank you to our lovely sponsors, Suncorp who are sponsoring the food for the weekend and GridAKL who are sponsoring the venue.

The charities you will be helping at this event are:

• SheSharp
• Social Enterprise Auckland
  and more coming soon

Watch this space for more details about the charities!

What do you need to bring?

An open mind, a smile and your own computer/laptop. Don’t forget your phone, chargers or any other gadgets that you rely on.

What's in it for me?

First and foremost we aim to help local non-profits. NPOs often have quite a lot of IT challenges. Through this, you may find that you meet new people from different companies or industries, find contacts if you're looking for work, or get to step outside of your comfort zone and learn something new through a weekend project. Or just have a fun weekend working in a team to deliver something that is really useful to the community!

What can we expect as results for the NPOs?

This depends on you, your team and the needs of your chosen NPO! We have run twelve successful weekends, and have helped numerous NPOs with websites, IT infrastructure, design, branding, content as well as general advice.
