The Charities
There wouldn't be a Charity Hack without organisations who are willing to take a chance and register to be part of the event. Over 60 organisations have applied to be hacked and after a lot of tears and soul searching these are the ones that were shortlisted for Charity Hack 3. Check out their websites and read about the amazing work they do.
