I’m Shivani, a student backend developer and frequent participator in Hackclub - an international community for teens who code!!

As part of the Athena Award event in Hackclub, I’m hosting a workshop focused on introducing backend development to beginners, and I’ll be teaching them how to use MongoDB Atlas for building and connecting databases in a full-stack web project.

I’d love to know if MongoDB would be open to supporting or spotlighting this effort — whether that’s via educational resources, Atlas credits, stickers, or even a quick shoutout.

The goal is to help beginners understand real-world database use by walking them through schema design, connecting with Node.js, and deploying with Atlas. I’d be happy to share more details about the event (it’s hosted on Luma).

Thanks a ton,

Shivani
