Giving away lots of SP....not gonna make anything easier for anyone who doesn't know how to play. Included in that, is HOW to invest SP. You think new players in need of the sort of leg-up you are talking about are gonna know what to do with it?
The newer players you talk about who need help need *help*, not 10m SP. They need to run with a squad if they're getting rolled...and not a squad full of noobs either.
- Run with a squad - Figure the game out - Join a corp
You must learn honor, or you deserve to learn nothing at all.

Only one that comes to mind is The Learning Coalition, but there will be more out there for you. You could check here: https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=topics&f=855
Not sure how active it is but you're like to get some more ideas in this thread.

Interesting thought.
Reminds of an idea I'm sure some of us put forward ages ago along the lines of the certificates in EVE.
For those that may not know what certificates are (and assuming they're still part of EVE) they are something you earn once you've completed a pre-determined set of skills.
For example, there may be a set of certificates for Armor Tanking:
- STD Armor Tanking -- Dropsuit Armor Upgrades I -- Armor Plating I
- ADV Armor Tanking -- Dropsuit Armor Upgrades III -- Armor Plating III
- PRO -- etc
And perhaps a set of certificates for Armor Regeneration:
- STD Armor Regeneration -- Dropsuit Armor Upgrades I -- Armor Repair Systems I
- ADV Armor Regeneration -- Dropsuit Armor Upgrades III -- Armor Repair Systems III
etc...hopefully you get the idea.
Perhaps then what you could do is grant some leg-up NPE rewards or something that allow you to choose a few free certificates
