Programming is only a SMALL part of doing social good. Find a problem you care about first.
For us we wanted to help people who were skilled, but ended up washing dishes, as they did not understand the Danish culture. We made NemCV.com to make them CVs in 2011. The website is now defunct, but since we cared about helping people we turned into a real life event to help people and has helped 1000s of people into a better life here in Denmark, and continues several times a month to this day:

So, find the problem first, and then spend time helping and make an IT tool IF needed!
