## Overview

A presentation on how you can contribute to open source projects without needing to be a coder.

## Discord Announcement
```
@everyone
This week is a technical event, and well we're going to be on the little less technical side of things this time around.

We're going to be covering Free Open Source Software (FOSS) that anyone can contribute to, meaning you don't have to program to be able to contribute for the greater good. I will mainly be covering OpenStreetMap as it's a project I'm passionate about, but I will touch on other ways people can contribute to various other projects.

Also note that the room the event will be held is going to be in the ***Courtyard Room of the Student Life Building*** (Enter Student Life main entrance, walk through first corridor on your left, and the first door on your left)
```
