As part of the National Day of Civic Hacking (NDoCH), Random Hacks of Kindness (RHoK) Boston will facilitate problem solving and collaborations between citizens, communities, and organizations working toward applying civic technologies for social change in Greater Boston.

We've curated a ton of local and national challenges for you to work on this weekend, and you should also feel totally free to pitch your own project to the community! Local challenges will be pitched on Friday evening and listed on this ChallengePost site; national challenges can be found here.

We're looking forward to a great weekend of hacking, yakking, and community building.
