Call to Action
The “Taste of Wheaton”, an annual festival held in Wheaton, Maryland was moved on-line in 2020 in response to the COVID pandemic. MUM, a non-profit that distributes food to those in need, relies on the Taste of Wheaton for fundraising. This video was part of a larger plea for funds for the organization.
