  7. Are you in high school or college? Become a Youth Development Intern during the school year or summer season. This is a great chance to gain leadership skills and experience in mentoring and the non-profit sector. For more information contact swevolunteer@gmail.com.

  8. Join our board of directors or advisory board. We are working to build a diverse board with leaders and professionals of different backgrounds and expertise. Make a difference on a larger scale and help us maximize our impact and strengthen our operations for our local children and communities in need. If you are interested please contact our Executive Director, Dave Silbert at dsilbert@sowhatelse.org.

  9. Donations help So What Else keep our programs 100% free for all of our students. Setting up a monthly donation is the best way to support what we do. No matter how much or how often you give, however, donating to So What Else is one of the best ways to show our local young people that they matter and that we’re all invested in their growth and success.

  10. Share your So What Else Service Story on social media and tag us @sowhatelsehelps. This is a challenge for citizens to serve their communities and document their day of service and share what the day meant to them. Then challenge a friend to serve their community. By tagging @sowhatelsehelps and the charity you are serving you will be registered to win prizes while helping others. At a time when we are in such uncertainty and opposition lets come together to perform the very basic act of service to each other.
