==Charitable efforts== Every year ShmooCon supported multiple [[charities]], such as the [[Electronic Frontier Foundation]] and [[Hackers for Charity]], by sponsoring T-shirt sales. Attendees were provided the opportunity to donate a fixed amount of money for a charity in exchange for a T-shirt. ShmooCon also had a long-standing program, Shmooze-A-Student, where attendees could opt to cover an undergraduate college student's ticket fee and stipend when purchasing their own ticket.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Shmooze-A-Student β ShmooCon |url=https://www.shmoocon.org/shmooze-a-student/ |access-date=2024-01-12 |website=www.shmoocon.org}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=The Answers to the Burning Question: What is a Shmoo? β Seidenberg School News |url=https://seidenbergnews.blogs.pace.edu/2015/02/13/2776/ |access-date=2024-01-12 |website=seidenbergnews.blogs.pace.edu}}</ref> {| class="wikitable" |- !
