How Can My Hackathon Get Sponsored by GitHub Education?

Hi everyone,

How Can My Hackathon Get Sponsored by GitHub Education?

My name is Shyaka Chaste. I’m a web developer and I love organizing hackathons. I’m currently organizing a student hackathon called Hack With Me, a 24-hour event specifically for high schoolers.

The goal of Hack With Me is to make hackathons accessible to everyone. This year, we aim to bring together 300+ students to share their ideas, build projects, and showcase their talents.

You can find more details about the event here: https://www.hackwithme2025.com/

I wanted to kindly ask — how can GitHub Education sponsor or support our hackathon?

Thank you so much for your time. I’m looking forward to your response!

This sounds like a great opportunity for high school students to get involved in technology and develop their skills.

GitHub Education has several programs that might be helpful in sponsoring or supporting your hackathon. Here are some ways GitHub Education could be involved:

GitHub Education Pack
GitHub Education offers a free package of tools for students, which includes access to development tools, cloud services, and more. If your hackathon is for students, you could offer participants the GitHub Student Developer Pack, which provides free access to many high-value services, such as Heroku, DigitalOcean, Namecheap, and others.

To apply for this, you can ask students to sign up for the GitHub Education Pack: https://education.github.com/pack

GitHub Education might also be interested in supporting your hackathon by providing workshops, talks, or technical mentoring during the event.

Thanks for your message! To assist you with a SHA hash, I need a bit more context:

• Are you referring to a commit, file (blob), or some other Git object?
• Do you want details about what was changed, who made the change, or which repository/project it belongs to?
• If possible, please provide the SHA itself or a link to where you saw it.

Let me know what you have in mind, and I’ll help you with the relevant GitHub information!
