Hi folks,

We're starting to solicit challenges for the next Hack for Western MA June 6-8th.

Do you know of a nonprofit or government agency that might have a great challenge for us to work on?

Here's what makes a good challenge:
  • Is related to an ongoing problem which your organization works on.
  • Has context and is relevant to the community.
  • Has an understandable impact. How many people would benefit if the problem was solved
  • Which organization(s) would use the solution?
  • Has data. What data would help solve this problem? Is it publicly available?
  • Can be owned by a person or organization with relevant expertise.
If you know of a group that might have a challenge please get in touch with me.

Thanks!

Randall
