I have a similar pain in my rural community. All the restaurants and businesses post their news on the two local facebook groups, pretty much in lieu of having updated websites. I'd love it if there was a non-terrible alternative for this use case.
Consider being a career expert - It’s low-commitment, high-impact, and, honestly, a pretty good time.
I'm spinning up this platform to help people exploring different career options find and talk to people working in careers they're interested in learning about.
As a volunteer career expert, you'll get requests from career explorers and then talk to them about your career.
They'll ask you questions like "What's your favorite part of your job", and "What did you do before you started this job?”, and “What is an average day like for you?”
They’re easy questions. Answering them is a big help for those trying to figure out what they want to do with their lives.

4. You split the affiliate revenues from the subsite
5. The internet is now full of shitty content shilling diet pills and google can't figure it out

The Phoenix Project should be required reading for anyone in the management chain of software development, IT, devops, etc. Especially non-technical CEOs.
