Mark Zuckerberg's Mission: Immigration Reform (Bloomberg)

Young undocumented immigrants and tech professionals are uniting to create immigration reform tools at a hackathon spearheaded by Mark Zuckerberg’s political advocacy group, FWD.us.

Next month, tech-savvy DREAMers - individuals brought to the U.S. as minors - and some of the biggest names in tech will gather at the LinkedIn headquarters in Mountain View, Calif. and divide into teams tasked with coding solutions to problems within the U.S. immigration system.

“Each team will create a project or application that could help supporters share stories, contact members of Congress or show family and friends why they want meaningful immigration reform,” the hackathon application reads.

... The deadline to apply for the hackathon is Wednesday, Oct. 30.
