Using tech skills specifically? Not a lot comes to mind right this minute. Maybe if you're a licensed ham radio operator, join ARES[1] or RACES[2]. Outside of that, one way to help very directly, depending on where you live, is to join a volunteer fire department / EMS squad. But not all areas are covered by volunteer departments, and there's a lot of latency in terms of training time to do a lot of things (eg, you can't just become an EMT overnight). But there are always people needed around the station to do maintenance on equipment, clean, help with paperwork, etc. [1]: http://www.arrl.org/ares http://www.arrl.org/ares [2]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_Amateur_Civil_Emergency_Service https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_Amateur_Civil_Emergency_...
