Terps Against Hunger pack millionth meal
I spent Sunday on the floor of the Xfinity Center where hundreds of volunteers worked for nearly half the day to pack food for underprivileged families in the DC area. There were so many moments to capture throughout the day. Filling the bags, people dancing, and President Loh, Congressman Chris Van Hollen and group president Joshua Turskey filling the millionth meal that the group had filled.
