Diplace is not the organizer. Check the terms on the organizer's site and do not pay for participation unless the official page requires it.

Half Life is a ten-week Hack Club program for teens aged 13-18 with no experience: you design and build five hardware projects (PCBs, CAD, music, displays and breadboard logic). Up to $100 per project is provided for parts, and those who complete all ten weeks receive a 3D printer; extra prizes (plushies, drawing tablets, an iPad) are given for videos and posts about projects that reach a virality threshold. Warmup weeks run from 14 September to 4 October, and the program ends on 14 December 2026 (per the official Hack Club API). The page does not restrict the participant's country, but Hack Club does not cover customs costs.
