Kids Coding for a Cause

Random Hacks of Kindness Junior is coming back to Wesleyan for a FREE one-day hackathon for local 4th-8th grade students.
Students are paired with Wesleyan student computer science mentors and local nonprofit representatives to develop prototype smartphone apps for local causes.

Participants will join us in Exley Science Center (265 Church St.) on Saturday, April 27th from 8:30 am-3:30 pm for a day of brainstorming, coding and making new connections. Parents may join us at the end of the session to see presentations.

This event is FREE and open to the public, but there are limited spots so you MUST register: http://rhokjr.org/events/wesleyan-university-2019/



Sponsored by Wesleyan University Information Technology Services, Wesleyan Mathematics Department, Wesleyan Computer Science Department, Patricelli Center for Social Entrepreneurship, and Jewett Center for Community Partnerships.
