The Bay Area attracts people from all over the world with its jobs, culture, and technology. We leave family behind to become part of something bigger than ourselves. In doing so, we form a new family out here -- a family of hackers, makers, and thinkers. Hacker Dojo Thanksgiving is dedicated to everyone who isn't traveling home or who doesn't have a home to return to. We've found our new home right here.
