Retired Techie Looking for Ways to Contribute – Need Suggestions

Hi Reddit,

I’m a recently “retired” techie with a background in tech, eCommerce, software development, security, and privacy. I’m looking for ways to give back to the community and contribute to meaningful projects or causes.

I’d love to use my skills to help out, but I’ve been struggling to find non-profits or organizations that are open to someone with my industry background. It feels like there’s a gap between what I can offer and what these groups might be looking for.

Has anyone here been in a similar situation or know of organizations (nonprofits, open-source projects, community initiatives, etc.) that could use tech expertise? I’m open to any ideas—local, remote, or anything in between.

Thanks in advance for your suggestions!
