Google summer of code
From HaskellWiki
The Google Summer of Code (GSoC) is an annual program funded by Google to allow hundreds of students around the world to participate in free or open source software.
GSoC is open to students using all kinds of technologies and each year we like to see man projects written in / written for haskell.
