In alignment with the Quaker philosophies of GFS, we seek to uplift the voices of our peers through Computer Science. With the goal of supporting those who are struggling with their mental health, we invite everyone to hack mental health at the third annual Quackathon. 

The Quackathon will span two days, March 4th and 5th. It includes a variety of fun workshops as well as various opportunities to learn more about coding, as well as digital and game design.
