Jack McWilliams

Recipient of the Elizabeth Abernathy Hull Award, 2017

Jack McWilliams has been a volunteer at the William S. Baer School, a public school for profoundly disabled students in Baltimore, for 20 years. He turned an unused greenhouse into a garden and gazebo where children in wheelchairs can plant and pick the fruit and vegetables in the raised beds he created, making nature approachable for a population that too often is neglected when it comes to environmental education.
