Hi Vitaly, I think this is a very good idea and I would like to thank you for this very important work!

If they show some interest, perhaps you can also show them some projects that are especially friendly to newcomers. When I do similar events, I tell people that they just need to learn the basics of programming and then it helps to make small changes to a big program. Also, their participation will show future employers what they are able to do and that is a nice bonus. Some Free Software projects have local meetings to assign simple bugs to newcomers, so if there are any in your region, that might be a useful thing to point out. Happy hacking!
