What's a hackathon? Something Google, Microsoft and Apple do in Silicon Valley for brilliant IT ideas. 

Segue to Brisbane Australia, add Indigenous charities First Nations Foundation, AILC, The Streets Movement and SevGen and you get genius IT solutions to help charities reach more people. The vision of Dean Foley at Barayamal, an Indigenous entrepreneur, business incubator and accelerator was behind this BRILLIANT idea. 60 IT business and marketing people turned up to volunteer at this event over a weekend.

An app to help people buying a car work out if they are getting a good deal or a bad deal based on interest rates, terms and insurance? How handy is that??? 

First Nations Foundation on the cutting edge, hackers and hustlers helping us along...the impact of our Foundation just took off exponentially.

Mark down the date. FNF went digital today. We are going to start helping thousands of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people master their money skills.
