In just 2 weeks 1,000+ students & 250+ mentors have signed up for http://hackyoursummer.org

😮 This just confirms what we knew was happening. Too many talented students are -Waiting for an internship. -Waiting for a recruiter. -Waiting for someone to tell them what project to work on.

Hack Your Summer is built around a different idea: DON'T WAIT! BUILD!

🚨 THE GOAL: build something you can show future employers, future collaborators, graduate programs, mentors, investors, or anyone else who asks: "What have you built?"

What kind of project? • Products, software, and AI tools • Data science and analytics • Journalism and media • Design and creative work • Community initiatives • Hardware and robotics • Or something entirely unexpected

🚨 MENTORS: this is an opportunity to help the next generation of builders, share what you've learned, and get inspired by what students are creating today.

🚨 HELP!!!!! We're also looking for sponsors and partners who can contribute software, tools, datasets, APIs, challenges, credits, and real-world problems for students to tackle.

‼️ Important dates: • Cohort 1 registration closes June 10 • Cohort 1 starts June 15

• Cohort 2 registration closes July 8 • Cohort 2 starts July 13

If you're a student, apply. If you're a mentor, join us. If you're a company that wants to help, we'd love to talk.

Let's build!!!
