Absolutely. My day job does make the world a better place. But it doesn't resolve a lot of the very serious issues in the world.

- timwiseman 17y agoI also think my day job does make the world a better place, but that is very different from volunteering specifically to make it better without cost to anyone else.
- neilk 17y agoSo what serious issues did you have in mind? Or are you shopping for $MEANINGFUL_LIFE? Sorry if this feels a bit pointed, but a meaningful life is not something that others can give you, or even recommend to you. I could tell you that third world literacy is the number one cause you should support, but that's what I believe. Figure out the causes that matter to you, research those, then maybe you'll find some angle of attack. Incidentally, a guy who did this wrote a book "Leaving Microsoft to Change the World". He was a marketing guy, but he does run his charity with a lot of the style of a tech company. Maybe that book will give you ideas. http://www.leavingmicrosoftbook.com/ http://www.leavingmicrosoftbook.com/
