Code for Good is an annual event based out of the Portland area where Python programmers from all over the globe get together for a long weekend to build projects that help our communities. In 2017 the event will take place in Portland, OR, at Reed College. Participants stay in on-site dorms; hacking and socializing takes place in communal areas. Join us this year just for the fun of giving back! Questions? Drop us a note.
Projects in 2017 will be focused on issues facing our communities. We have some great projects lined up but we need more! We need YOU to help us find other great projects - suggest a project below! Project details, including available teams to join, will be announced to attendees around the beginning of July. Team leads will get information on projects at the end of May.
Suggest a ProjectHave you always thought to yourself "Self, I rock—and I should lead something!” Well here's your chance! We have lots of great projects and we need great people to lead them! Leading a team entails connecting with stakeholders, initial architecting, planning out project milestones, and keeping your team moving forward. Indicate your willingness when you register and we’ll be in touch!

Bring yourself, your laptop, and whatever you plan on wearing. Lodging consists of shared dorm rooms (what better way to get to know new people!) complete with linens, pillows, blankets and towels. We'll also be supplying food, drinks, and fun atmosphere. For a more in-depth run down of the weekend, check out our attendee information page. More questions? Drop us a note.
$150 all-inclusive. Registration includes room, linens, pillows, towels, swag, and three meals a day. We are a break-even operation; all funds go toward paying for the event!
You’ll spend dinner meeting with your team, chatting about your projects, and getting your environments aligned. We’ve found the event is most successful, with the most buy-in, when teams are a cohesive bunch from the beginning.
