So What Else will be going to Butler's Orchard to gather pumpkins for our healthy living programs, cooking classes and aftercare programs. The work we do on this day will help provide for our youth.
There is a parking lot, once you arrive at Butler's Orchard, there will be So What Else staff waiting to greet you. If you are considering participating in this event please arrive on time. We all have to be led to the fields together to do the pumpkin gleaning.
If you happen to be running late, please do not hesitate to reach out to the email and/or contact number that will be provided via email.
We will be outside so closed toe shoes are recommended. Come out and help give back to the community.

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.
