Have you considered working IT/developer for a hospital or NGO or important govt agency? You might find fulfillment there as your work supports a good mission and outcome vs just another widget.
as one who took a pay cut to work on a place like you describe: this is not 100% good solid advice, although i'm sure it comes from good intentions.
it might work for the OP, but then, these places are usually PLAGUED by political maneuverings and restrictions that end up ruining most of the work done by the workers 'on the trenches'.
I can understand. My experience working in non-profits: poor pay, in great need of talent, strong sense of purpose (you will spring out of bed and be content). anecdotal, but I've seen it with others as well.
