A couple of things I apply for my own doings as software engineer:

- educate aspiring software engineers from other countries online by writing on your blog for free about software engineering topics

- in the long term, try to translate the content to other languages (maybe pay someone to do it)

- maximize your income and donate money to children's education in other countries, they need to have the chance to learn the English language in the first place to be able to consume all the free educational content and open source projects which can be found online

- if you put an educational course online for $99 to educate others about software engineering, think about developing countries where it's not possible to pay the $99 for a 5 hours video course, the price can be adjusted on a country base by something like PPP [0]
