# REMINDER: Join the WebVisions crew for the Hackathon for Social Good, Tuesday

With great power, they say, comes great responsibility. And while that applies to superheroes, it also applies to developers, too. Because you’ve got the power to change things.

So why not use a few of your coding superpowers to help out with [Hackathon for Social Good](http://www.webvisionsevent.com/portland/session/hackathon-for-social-good-p2w2/ "Hackathon for Social Good") on Tuesday?

> Join web and mobile experts on Tues., May 15th in an all day Hackathon for Social Good. Hackathons are events when programmers and designers meet to work collaboratively to build programs and applications.

> The day will begin with short presentations by educators and non-profit organizations, followed by informational sessions on building sites and web applications to help benefit non-profit organizations.

> If you have a great coding and design mindset, put your talents to the task and help create tools to solve local community needs.

What kind of organizations? Well, [My Way Home Dog Rescue](http://mywayhomedogrescue.org/ "My Way Home Dog Rescue"), [Nursing Mother’s Counsel](http://www.nursingmotherscounsel.org/ "Nursing Mother's Counsel"), and [p:ear](http://www.pearmentor.org/ "p:ear") to be exact.

The event will be hosted at [ISITE Design](http://www.isitedesign.com/ "ISITE Design"). Things kick off around 9AM and will continue throughout the day.
