You could try world community grid. They have a bunch of projects such as searching for a drug for a certain tropical disease (sorry it's a pain to recall the spelling) that infects several million people a year mostly children (no vaccine) existing treatments can be fatal or with serious side effects.

Others are to find organic substances that can be used to make solar cells with 20% efficiency thereby making solar power incredibly cheap and environmentally friendly in addition to providing a lot more power.

You can use the boinc manager to add the World Community Grid to your tasks and do both milkyway at home and world community grid tasks at the same time.
