Relatedly, but not charity itself, I try to stimulate open source communities by issuing a periodical[0] with easy tasks for beginners to contribute. By getting new people into open source they can hopefully become long term vectors for good work.

Mozilla tags some Firefox (and other Mozilla projects’) bug reports as “good first bug” and adds a mentor to the bug.

Volunteer contributors can search these bugs by programming language or product area on https://codetribute.mozilla.org

Some volunteer contributors have become Mozilla employees (myself included :)
