Announcement Message
Join us on March 15-16 for Chinatown Hacks, a special AI hackathon designed specifically for high school students!
Hosted at USF's Downtown Campus on Howard Street, this unique event gives teens early exposure to AI technology and industry connections while developing solutions for San Francisco's Chinatown community. Unlike most tech events that target college students or professionals, we're creating an inclusive space where younger students can dive into AI with support from industry experts!
We've partnered with amazing sponsors including NVIDIA, HP, Cerebras Systems, and Twelve Labs who are providing conference tickets, hardware awards, AI tool credits, mentorship, and funding. Our goals include giving local high school students unprecedented access to AI professionals, creating practical solutions for Chinatown businesses and residents, bridging the gap between San Francisco's AAPI community and the tech industry, and providing mentorship opportunities typically unavailable to teens. We can't wait to see what these young innovators create!
SFUSD neither endorses nor sponsors the organization or activity described in this announcement. This distribution is provided as a community service.
