Real advice: Discern the type of charity/directly helping people that makes that dopamine hit for you and makes life satisfying.
For me, it’s homeless outreach. I don’t have a solid skill set so I just ask them if I can do anything to help.
If you ended up at a similar sentiment: maybe you could make an app or something that makes it easier to coordinate homeless outreach.
In modern society being a tech person has a lot of potential, find a charity that really makes you feel good to help and work backwards to where you’re at right now.
Dune style find that golden path.
Right on! I do a lot of food distribution offline, so that might be the first thing I talk to. I know there are tons of organizations since I'm fortunate enough to be located in a major major US city (yall know which), so thats a great idea!
