PROGRAMS

While Pledges for Change’s main programming is its pilots, the organization has also hosted and participated in a variety of community events throughout the year. Some of our major events include:

IGNITE FAIR

Ignite Fair is an annual volunteer fair hosted in the Greater Toronto Area, connecting hundreds of young people with volunteer opportunities offered by several non-profits, charities, and community groups annually. Since 2014, this event has connected 1,500+ youth with volunteer experiences offered by 75+ organizations.

HACKING GOOD

Hacking Good is an annual hackathon challenging high school and post-secondary students to design technology-based solutions that address one of the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In its inaugural year, 70+ students developed 11 ideas to address UN SDG #4, quality education, collectively contributing over 2,900 hacking hours.

While this initiative is currently on hiatus, read more about our Hacking Good Toronto event that took place November 2017 here.
