It is possibly best to talk to talk to teacher. You can pose it in the form
of a question: "Hello, I am from X. Because of my personal interest in
GNUstep (which is an open source implementation of <insert your own
description here>), I wonder if you are aware of Google Summer of Code?
Students get to interact with an open source community, contribute code and
earn some money." After that, it depends on the teacher.

Teachers know students and may (ideally should?) be interested in students
practicing software engineering.

Other than that, email, forums, etc. are good. So is talking to your
friends. I'm not sure other offline methods are worth it without support
from teachers.
