Resource for your business: Hack the Hood

Hack the Hood is a nonprofit organization that provides opportunity for low-income teens, young adults, and small businesses throughout the community. The organization offers a program for low-income teens and young adults of color that teaches them about website development, professionalism, and career exploration in tech.

 

The trained programmers then work with small businesses in the local community to create websites for the businesses. Hack the Hood offers an application process to have a nice and accessible website made for your small business at no charge. The website will include key features including a mobile accessible site. This is extremely valuable to every business because having an online presence assists in the growth and production of a business.

 

Both young adults in the community and small local businesses are benefitting from this organization. Hack the Hood is helping the community grow, increasing economic activity, and promoting educational attainment in low income communities.
