VT Seva Maryland Celebrates Unity and Service at the 2nd Annual Multicultural and Volunteer Excellence Night! 🌟 VT Seva Maryland recently celebrated a vibrant evening on November 15, 2025, at Windsor Knolls Middle School in Ijamsville, MD. The event served a dual purpose: a celebration of our community's rich cultural diversity and a platform to honor the outstanding contributions of our youth and adult volunteers. A Message from Our Youth Leaders Team - By Mridula Vasudevan, Youth Director for Global Partnership and National Projects, VT Seva Maryland Our aim with this event was clear: to foster understanding and unity by bringing together people from all backgrounds to share traditions, performances, and stories. Through a showcase of music, dance, art, and cultural displays, we highlighted the richness of our Frederick community while inspiring young leaders to embrace service as a fundamental way of life. The "Volunteer Excellence" portion of the evening recognized the incredible dedication of students and families who generously give their time and energy to meaningful causes. This dual focus on culture and service demonstrates how community pride and volunteerism go hand in hand in building stronger, more compassionate communities. We were especially honored to receive official recognition from our esteemed county leadership. We extend our deepest gratitude to County Executive Jessica Fitzwater Jessica Fitzwater for Frederick County Frederick County Executive Jessica Fitzwater and County Council President Brad Young Brad W.
