Looking for a new way to make a difference? Then join our team! We are currently recruiting well-rounded individuals to work with us this Fall.
Classes start mid-September and go until the holidays. Must be available once a week or bi-weekly: 1 to 2 hours in length between the hours of 3:30 and 6:30pm. Montgomery County, Baltimore City, PG County and Washington DC locations. Interested volunteers will have considerable flexibility in choosing a time and location.
We teach a variety of subjects, and work primarily with under-supported middle and elementary school aged students.
Providers will have the opportunity to choose the class subject they wish to teach. You will also have the opportunity to create your very own curriculum (ex: Healthy Living class was created by a volunteer who wanted to incorporate healthy decision-making w/ quick and easy exercises young school agers can do).
Experience with children is helpful, but not necessary.
Training and supplies will be provided by us. Ready to make a difference? Contact us!

Mission Statement
So What Else's mission is to improve the lives of children and families living in underserved communities in the Baltimore-Washington Metro Area by providing food security, access to basic necessities, and high-quality out-of-school time programs in literacy, athletics, and the visual and performing arts while inspiring young people to give back to the community by creating volunteer opportunities for citizens of all ages.
Description
So What Else (SWE) ... can we do to help? is a nonprofit organization founded in 2009 and focused on building strong, vibrant and resilient communities through direct programming and in partnership with allied organizations. Our primary programming embraces two key areas: Food Security and Youth Development Programs.
SWE started with Youth programming and added Food Security as we witnessed the massive economic dislocations caused by the C19 Pandemic and the consequent explosion in food insecurity. SWE and its community partners operate several Food Relief programs in Montgomery and surrounding counties, in Washington D.C. and Baltimore.
SWE needs volunteers who share our passion for service and seek to have an immediate and lasting impact upon the lives and fortunes of those we serve. Our volunteers are essential to our ability to deliver reliable, accessible and high-quality education programming and food security services.
SWE welcomes volunteers of all backgrounds, experiences and capabilities. Our greatest needs at present are for Food Pantry helpers, Bulk Food Recovery & Distribution Warehouse workers, Delivery & Distribution drivers and Teacher's Aides / Classroom Assistants.
