####Now what is Google Summer of Code?
The Google Summer of Code, often abbreviated to GSoC, is an international internship program, organized by Google where a few accepted students contribute to open source organizations such as Django, Git, Mozilla during the summer, and get awarded a stipend by Google. You can find out more about Google Summer of Code here.
