I have an extra 45 minutes to an hour every night...
Wouldn't mind doing some Chessed with my time

Any ideas?
Don't mind volunteering for any organizations...
I'm very tech savvy - if any org needs some computer work or anything...

Any leads?

What kind of organizations exist in your community? Can you start calling local people?

You are an inspiration. When I have an extra hour all I want to do is sit on the couch, revel in the quiet, and enjoy the hour where nobody is touching me, nagging or talking in my ear. All I can say is Wow!

Can you learn with someone on the phone or mentor a struggling teen?

I would call local organizations like bonei olem, a time, oorah, bikur chili. I’m sure they can use all the help they can get. Tell them how much time you can give and what you are good at. I’m sure they will keep you bz.

What a zchus! It’s such a great feeling to be on the giving end. May it bring you much bracha

OP, I really admire your willingness to do chesed during your Free time.
Would you consider making some phone calls to wealthy people to help out financially people who are struggling?

Maybe you could help people who are down on their luck and job searching with stuff like resume reviews, cover letter reviews, and interview practice. You could do these things entirely from home. Probably best to work through an organization and keep your private contact info private.

I think this is amazing. Do you want to work exclusively for Jewish causes? I volunteered for the community action center grant writing. Is this something that interests you?

Tutor higher school girls. I used to do that. To them, doing well is so important for their self confidence and social standing. The hourly rate for tutors is well more than many can afford
