Students and recent grads

apply to volunteer.

We welcome students looking to gain real-world experience in application design and development, and are driven by a desire to use technology for social good. We gather a list of their development skills and nonprofit interests. 

Our 300+ volunteers hail from dozens of universities, including the following:

Volunteers are matched to project teams.

• Volunteers are matched to projects based on their skillsets, prior experiences, and preferences.

• Volunteers are typically grouped into teams of 3-5, depending on the scope and difficulty of the project.

• A volunteer Product Manager is responsible for keeping track of progress, making updates with the nonprofit management, and leading conversation from the students' side. 

Projects are completed with full transparency. 

• Typical project engagements last 5-10 weeks, with an expected 5-10 hour/week time commitment from each student volunteer.

• We stay in close contact with streamlined channels of communication and organize weekly check-ins to ensure that progress is on track.

• We ensure that we document our code and maintain ethical coding practices, to allow for ease of hand-over at the end of the engagement.

DATA SCIENCE, VISUALIZATION, & AI/ML

BACK-END

Our volunteers have experience with R, Python, D3, Node.js, and data visualization tools like Tableau and Flourish. In addition to creating informative static and interactive data visualizations, we’ve also worked on improving data collecting, management, and processing methods. We've used Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence to perform predictive modeling as well.

PRODUCT & UX/UI DESIGN

We have volunteers from graphic and product design backgrounds. We’ve designed applications from scratch, fashioned efficient interfaces, developed detailed user flow diagrams and clickable prototypes, and used Content Management Systems to create beautiful products that ensure ease of handover.
