Using a slightly different variation of his name, D. Dante Anthony Hayes is trying to raise money for a “Maryland Armed Forces” event, seeking to sign up military organizations to sponsor a combination benefit concert and fashion show that he claims will be held May 22 in a Baltimore park.

Hayes, who uses multiple addresses in Maryland and the District of Columbia, is the director of a nonprofit group that he formed called the Congressional Education Foundation for Public Policy.
