During our first virtual hackathon, students were given 24 hours with a team to complete our challenge: "Design an app, game, or animation using Code.org, Scratch, or any platform to address a particular issue that has affected your community in the COVID-19 pandemic". Throughout the course of Virtual Hackathon 1.0, students collaborated on TFC-hosted virtual platforms to create projects and submitted their entries to win cash prizes.
