- About
I've reworked the content, but it's likely to change after our discussions on what HackMGM is going to be. Here's what I put together:
HackMGM, a Code for America Brigade is a diverse community of innovators, creatives, makers, thinkers, coders, and doers volunteering our time and efforts to make tech work for the residents of the wonderful city of Montgomery, Alabama. Code for America is a nonprofit whose mission is to address the growing divide between the public and private sectors and their effective use of technology and design.
HackMGM at its core is a group of IT professionals and IT enthusiasts for the community, by the community. We are of the belief that everyone, regardless of their professional background, can contribute. Whether its ideas, experience, or just plain curiosity about how you can contribute to our endeavor, we welcome you! Join us today!
