The amazing group of dietitians selected for the Award truly demonstrate a commitment to the profession. They each give selflessly of their time by volunteering and/or supporting their community through other efforts, programs, and initiatives. These attributes, together with their actions to promote ‘community spirit’, encourage eating local foods, and supporting agriculture within the state, exemplify the values of Cabot’s farm families.
And one standout has been selected for Cabot’s Community Celebrity Cruise, in September 2019.
Congratulations, Manju Karkare!
“Volunteering provides a strong connection to my community and gives me a great deal of personal gratitude. My passion for nutrition drives me to give in the areas of hunger and nutrition education… This award exemplifies the role of RDNs beyond the clinics, schools, kitchens, and labs and into the fields, farms, and sources of food.” – Manju Karkare, MS, RDN, CLT, FAND
