We're looking at a trip to Romania to help with marginalized groups. Much

Go to idealist.org
Search Jobs/Volunteer
Take a gig in India/Tibet/Nepal for 6 months.
Probably will change your life, for the rest of your life. Then come back and
write code. But it will be different. Guaranteed.
One of many gigs (zillions) on Idealist.org:
>>>
Teaching English to Tibetan Children
The Jyekundo area ("Yushu" in Chinese) is one of the most remote Tibetan
regions with Tibetan culture very much intact. Volunteers are given a very
special opportunity to improve the lives of Tibetan children while also
learning about and immersing in Tibetan culture.
>>>
Nepal Volunteer Locations: Langtang Although only 150 km and around 12 hours
North of Katmandu, Langtang is one of the most remote areas of Nepal.
