Hacktoberfest - README

Please add the label hacktoberfest and/or hacktoberfest-accepted to this issue closed by #1 🙏

Proofread README.md

Just realized the first sentence has some redundancy:

Hacktoberfest is an annual worldwide competition throughout October to encourage code and non-code commits contributions to open source repos.

Should look like:

Hacktoberfest is an annual worldwide competition throughout October to encourage code and non-code commits contributions to open source repos.

Probably other questionable choices as this was hobbled together in ~5 minutes. good-first-issue territory 😉

Add CONTRIBUTING.md

To make contributions to this repo consistent and clearly outline, a CONTRIBUTING.md file needs to be created (cf. GitHub Docs).

Add LICENSE.md

A license, while optional, makes sure that any contributors or individuals who fork a repo understand how the content can be used.

My vote is for the Unlicense.

Add details for Hacktoberfest contributions via "Advocacy"

The goal of this issue is to inform and encourage Techlahoma members to contribute in a variety of low or non-code ways while participating in Hacktoberfest.

Tasks

• Update README.md
• Create /advocacy/.keep
