The Cell 411 App may be useful to a community watch group.
"Cell 411 is a De-centralized, micro-social platform that allows users to issue emergency alerts, and respond to alerts issued by their friends. Cell 411 is ideal for use by activists, neighborhood watches, students, friends and other groups of people willing to organize themselves independently in order to manage and respond to emergencies. Once you and your friends download and install the app, you can create small, independent and customized cells of users to send out alerts in case of medical emergencies, police emergencies and other potential emergency situations, all in an instant. Whether your car breaks down or you are engaged in activism and need urgent help from friends, you can issue alerts with your exact GPS coordinates where your friends can get the distance and directions to your locations."

I think Medford Family Network, Malden Warming Center, and the Mystic Valley Market take volunteers.
Mutual Aid Medford and Somerville has some short term volunteer opportunities like grocery delivery and checking in on neighbors. Also lots of longer-term volunteer needs, some require training. https://mutualaidmamas.com/
Our Revolution Medford organizes all year round to make systemic change and always needs more volunteers to do their work. Member sign up is here: https://airtable.com/shrmyke6X5HeSLiaL - this is a more open ended group & not a funded nonprofit. It's not as clear cut as show up to this place and do this specific thing for 2 hours. But pretty rewarding to help enact the Medford Peoples Platform 🙂
