Our young people (12-21) work to “hack” or solve real-world community challenges using technology. These amazing teams were specifically challenged to create a digital solution— an app, a website, or another digital product—  utilizing Artificial Intelligence (AI) for community improvements.

  • To increase interest and literacy in technology, coding, and problem-solving, particularly within the fields of AI and digital solution creation.

  • To challenge participants to develop practical digital products (apps, websites) that directly benefit the local community’s well-being.

  • To give middle and high school students a visible platform to present their work, receive expert feedback, and be recognized for their ingenuity with competitive prizes.

  • To leverage the expertise and resources of partners like Silicon Harlem, Amazon Access, and H&M to deliver a high-quality, impactful educational program.
