DVImagines: Hacking Homelessness

At BCG Digital Ventures, we are constantly looking into how we can use new technologies to make a difference through combining resources, collaborating, and working together. This unique hackathon is your opportunity to do just that, by proposing new solutions to impact homelessness at an organizational level and look at the bigger picture.

If you’re a team player that’s eager to take on an unconventional challenge and hack for a greater good, then look no further! Register today.

Depaul supports some of the most disadvantaged and isolated people in the UK, working with them to provide the stability and support needed to help them avoid or escape homelessness.

Its services help people at every stage in their journey from early intervention in schools and colleges and immediate emergency accommodation to longer-term supported housing and through pathways to training and employment.

Every year Depaul provide support to more than 3,700 people. The reality is that demand for their services continues to grow every year.

We are looking for practical solutions which will target the root causes of homelessness. Your submission could support people in Depaul services with their budgeting or housing needs, or ensure that Depaul staff have the tools they need to maximise their impact with the client group they work. Don’t expect that your product will solve the ‘homelessness crisis’, but you can hope that what you produce will have a lasting impact on the homelessness sector which aims to tackle the root causes of homelessness.
