In the Nation’s Service and In the Service of Humanity


We build software for nonprofits.

We empower engineers, designers, activists, and humanitarians to create lasting and impactful social change. If you're a student or a nonprofit, we'd love to get in touch!


Our Mission

Hack4Impact exists for both nonprofits and students. We connect student software developers with nonprofits and other socially responsible businesses to develop powerful new tools for social change. This enables nonprofits to further their mission and better engage their clients. We are committed to increasing awareness of technology's potential for good.

Our Values

Go beyond technology

  • Technology is only one tool we use in our greater mission for social impact. Technology alone is not enough. We learn from, work with, and are inspired by others who are tackling social problems using a multitude of tools.

Engage your community

  • We build with others in mind. Empathy and compassion are crucial to serving our partner organizations and members. When we embark on projects, we work to deeply understand the people who we are helping.

Go for it

  • Organizational roles do not determine the value of an idea: great ideas can come from anyone and anywhere. We grow because we are always trying something new.

Be open minded

  • Our process depends on openness to different people, topics, and perspectives. We embrace difference and work against intolerance to foster an inclusive environment. Our goal is to expose our members to the vast opportunities and daunting challenges in our work.

Develop with Care
