I have found that the best way to approach the group you would like to
support is to ask them what they need and then figure out if you can
accommodate them.

Sometimes you have to tell a group you can help them in a certain area
but they will have to absorb the equipment costs.. like a group that
wants on site TV back to an operations center or e-mail from a field
location where Blackberrys and cell text messaging don't work.
