Charitable Contributions
Philanthropy has always been a part of The Maryland Seafood Festival, and this year is no exception. Festival organizers are offering three ways for attendees to give back to local charities.- The event will feature charity vendors, including groups such as the local Boy Scouts.
- A $2.00 donation from every presale ticket sold online will go to the local charity of the purchaser‟s choosing.
- Food donations brought by festival-goers will be added to the „Stuff-A-Boat‟ campaign, a partnership between The Maryland Seafood Festival and Giant Food. All donations used to “stuff the boat” will go to The Maryland Food Bank.
