ATL Tech Gives Back, a day-long event intended to harness Atlanta's passionate technology community for greater good, will be held on Thursday, April 12. Hosted by social service platform Community Bucket and startup technology publication Hypepotamus, and powered by Cox Enterprises, the quarterly event allows over 100 volunteers to give back through four different service projects with Atlanta-born nonprofits.

Since its inception last year, ATL Tech Gives Back has engaged 500+ attendees from technology companies ranging from enterprise to startup in volunteer projects with five community nonprofits.

"At Cox, we are committed to building a better future for the next generation," said Cox Enterprises Corporate Responsibility Manager Ty Hodge. "ATL Tech Gives Back is one way we partner with local startups and technology companies to improve the community and the lives of those who, like us, call Atlanta home."

On April 12, participants will have the option to work with one of four nonprofits: Park Pride, Global Growers, MedShare or the Wylde Center.

"As we enter into our second year of Tech Gives Back events, we've been thrilled by the overwhelming response from the Atlanta startup and tech community," said Jacey Lucus, Community Bucket's Board President. "From our presenting sponsor, Cox Enterprises, to additional sponsors and partners, to our enthusiastic volunteer participants, everyone involved has shown up 100 percent to make Tech Gives Back an impactful event and truly make a demonstrable change for these nonprofits."

The schedule for the day is as follows:

Volunteers meet at service project location: 12:45 p.m.

Service project: 1-4 p.m.

Social gathering at The Brass Tap: 4:30-6 p.m.
