Question Volunteering - Tech Help Needed?

I currently volunteer. The general experience is very good and satisfying...highly recommended to anybody thinking about it. But I will admit, I was hoping to get involved in something a little different than what my current "job" entails.

I'd like to provide technical services for an organization that needs such assistance. I have considerable experience and knowledge in various technical areas, including computers, mobile devices, audio/visual, even some web site development. If anybody has any recommendations for any group or organization that could possibly use such assistance, I'd appreciate your input.

SCORE for small businesses sounds like a perfect fit for you. Obviously, the computer club for computer repair since they refurbish putters to give to those in need.

I so love how so many in TV volunteer. Thank you one and all.

Hope Lutheran Church has been announcing a need for audio/visual help. The request seems somewhat urgent.

Have you considered any of the public school systems....
I read they have numerous needs and greatly appreciate the support THE villagers
give them.

It was in the newspaper several weeks ago ..about the time the schools were opening..
I will "rack my brain" since there is a villager group who do extensive vol. in the schools too.
