If you mean meaningful as in you want to do good meaningful work, I'd suggest taking a look at Ruby for Good. Offhand I know of a couple projects that could use some assistance:

1) Diaperbase - This is an inventory management program for diaper banks. The software is currently being beta tested by 6 diaper banks before opening to all diaper banks. (https://github.com/rubyforgood/diaper)

2) Playtime Project Wishlist - This is an app for the Homeless Children's Playtime Project to facilitate the donation of toys for homeless kids. (https://github.com/rubyforgood/playtime)

Or just jump in our slack and offer to help, we have a lot of meaningful projects to work on! Grab an invite to our slack here: https://rubyforgood.herokuapp.com
