Upcoming Events
Volunteer Service Event with So What Else Food Pantry, October 11, 2025
Volunteer with YaleWomen and Yale Blue Green at this Saturday Outdoor Food Pantry! Every Saturday, So What Else provides free food to over 1,500 people in the parking lot in front of our warehouse with the help of our incredible volunteer team.
Saturday volunteers will help with the following tasks: directing traffic, checking clients in, helping with line control, attending the food tables, bagging produce, giving surveys, breaking down boxes, disposing of trash, sweeping and more.
Volunteers should be able to stand for long periods of time, lift large boxes, and do a considerable amount of bending. Volunteers should come prepared wearing closed-toed shoes and clothing they can both move around in and get dirty (NO CROCS ALLOWED).
AGE RESTRICTION: This is a great opportunity for children to join. A parent or guardian must accompany children aged 10-15. Volunteers aged 16 and above can participate independently without the presence of a parent or guardian.
