About GoodGreek

GoodGreek spawned from our collective personal experiences in Greek-life orgs. We saw the struggles with promoting your philanthropy events through low-quality Instagram screenshots and thought there had to be a better way.

How GoodGreek works

After creating an account, GoodGreek allows users to post their chapter's own philanthropy events to the platform. You can also browse other chapter's philanthropic events! Details for a event include

  • Event Name
  • Date and Time
  • Location
  • Cost of Admission*
  • Who to pay for your tickets*
  • What charity it benefits*
  • A website for further information*
  • The organization putting on the event
  • A description of the event *Denotes optional information

How we built it

GoodGreek is built on the Spring Framework for the backend, MySQL for the database, and React and Bootstrap for the frontend. We use API calls to communicate between our UI and backend server.

Challenges we ran into

We did have to deal with reigning in expectations quite a bit. As tempting as it can be to implement all the features you come up with, it's better to perfect the ones you really need first.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

  • Having a large and fully working full-stack project as our group's first time at a hackathon
  • Collaboration and Cooperation
  • Each of us provided our unique expertise
