Hi Nicki, Could you let Change know about this? Would be great to see some UW participants. I'm helping organize it, so if anyone has questions, feel free to contact me ([email protected]). ----- *Random Hacks of Kindness Seattle is here!* Next weekend, December 1-2, please join Random Hacks of Kindness Seattle for an exciting two days of developing practical open technology to make the world a better place. RHoK Global is a biannual code jam, with events taking place simultaneously in dozens of sites all over the world. At each event, developers, designers, and subject-matter experts come together to develop practical technology solutions focused on humanitarian and social development challenges. On Saturday morning, participants will form teams and select problems to work on. The rest of Saturday and most of Sunday will be devoted to designing and coding, before each team presents its solution on Sunday evening. To participate, sign up ASAP for free on the RHoK Seattle<http://www.rhok.org/event/seattle-wa-usa-0>page ( http://www.rhok.org/event/seattle-wa-usa-0). RHoK Seattle will take place at Jigsaw Renaissance in the International District. We'll provide the basics (wifi, power strips, projector), but please plan to bring any other equipment and supplies you'll need, such as laptops, peripherals, paper and sketching tools, and snacks. Meals are on your own. RHoK Seattle was pulled together on a short timeline, so our humble event won't have the swag, catered food, and corporate sponsors you might hear about in other locations. But we figured a small RHoK Seattle is better than no RHoK Seattle at all. So come join us to meet new people and collaborate on important projects for the greater good! For more information, visit our RHoK Seattle local site<http://www.rhok.org/event/seattle-wa-usa-0>and the RHoK Global <http://www.rhok.org/>site. We'll be adding more event details to the Seattle site as this week continues, so keep it bookmarked.
