Hack Club launched HCB in 2018 to enable hackathons to raise and spend money
|
||
through [fiscal sponsorship](https://hackclub.com/fiscal-sponsorship/). Since
|
||
then, we’ve expanded to all nonprofit projects; our 12,000 users have transacted
|
||
$50 million.

Local student-ran hackathons, robotics teams, and community groups use HCB as a
|
||
nonprofit neobank to collect donations, send payments, issue debit cards, and
|
||
gain 501(c)(3) status.
|
||
|
||
When we started HCB, it was developed in private for security reasons. That
|
||
said, one of Hack Club’s core principles has always been transparency - we [open
|
||
source](https://github.com/hackclub/ledger) our
|
||
[finances](https://hcb.hackclub.com/hq), [document how we run
|
||
events](https://github.com/hackclub/assemble), and have 500+ public repositories
|
||
on [GitHub](https://github.com/hackclub).
|
||
|
||
***[github.com/hackclub/hcb](https://github.com/hackclub/hcb) is now public -
|
||
check it out and star it.***
|
||
|
||
Paired with our technical documentation, it’s a great resource for anyone
|
||
interested in building financial software or applications with Ruby on Rails.
|
||
Our engineering work is also entirely public; the world can learn from our
|
||
successes and mistakes.
|
||
|
||
Since 2018, over fifty people have made 10k+ commits to HCB (thank you!); we
|
||
can’t wait for more contributors to join us:
