## Contribute to open source for good projects
|
|
|
|
For Good First Issue curates social impact and civic tech open source projects that are looking for contributors and lists issues on those projects that are tagged with the `help wanted` or `good first issue` labels.
|
|
|
|
Open source maintainers are always looking to get more people involved, but it can be challenging to become a contributor. For Good First Issue lowers the barrier for future contributions to social and civic good projects - and this is why it exists.
