THANK YOU!

Thanks again for all from the FHWA DelMar Office and the other agencies in the City Crescent Building who were able to go with Young Government Leaders (YGL) to volunteer at the Maryland Food Bank on April 20th! We got to meet a lot of other civic-minded federal employees, and like-minded citizens who also volunteered that day. Boxes were made and food was sorted over a four-hour period that was very productive and saved a lot of money for the charitable organization!
Feel free to take a look at the photos and short video clips to see what you may have missed:
