Established in 2017-2018

Hack4Change is nonprofit association founded by students at the California Academy of Mathematics and Science (CAMS). We started Hack4Change because there are very few coding opportunities oriented towards elementary school aged children. Most students are not introduced to programming until they enter high school. We made it our mission to provide programming exposure to students at a much earlier age and began hosting coding workshops. 

Our Mission

Hack4Change encourages the pursuance of computer science careers by exposing students to STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics).

Patna, India - Arunika Yadav
​Hack4change rocks!!I am junior year computer science undergrad at the Indian Institute of Technology Patna, India. Since, a long time I had been wondering how to reach the underprivileged girls in my society and teach them the basics of computer science, so that they can atleast get started before the stereotype settles in and then I came across Hack4Change. I hope to bring about a drastic change in the lives of many through the help being rendered to me by hack4change.

A Special Thanks to Hack4Change Team Leaders!
