Posted this in the Seattle group and talked about it during last SeaDUG but wanted to also notify the Tacoma group of Drupalers that aren't also part of that group. https://groups.drupal.org/node/513073

This weekend, Sat. Aug 27th, we're hosting a "Hack for Hope" to work on a all volunteer coded non-profit application that helps spread messages throughout the homeless communities in the cities it is launched in. Currently running in Washington DC and spreading to 5 more cities next year (Seattle being on the list for expansion) we are putting together a sprint for extending the SMS capabilities of the platform.

It's built entirely on Drupal 7 and connects to the Tropo platform to send SMS. If you're a developer of any skill level we'd love to have you out and get involved.

We're hosting it at our offices in downtown Tacoma at 938 Broadway from 10-2. Swing by, help out and meet some other local Drupal folks while coding on a platform that is saving lives.

Look forward to seeing you all there!
