I'm trying to help my mom's small, offline-only women's fashion boutique move onto the internet. I'm fortunate enough to have a remote job in tech, but their business is significantly disrupted by the lockdown. To help them out, I'm setting up their ebay/esty/shopify/pinterest accounts, taking pictures of the merchandise, doing logo design, etc. Teaching them how to use these platforms' complex UIs and, more broadly, learn how to effectively engage with customers on the internet, are the biggest challenges.

There are loads of businesses in this same boat; I think there's a big opportunity and sense of fulfillment in helping them keep their lights on.
