This volunteering had a huge impact on my understanding of issues that people are faced with every day in my community. I worked with a registered dietitian and personal trainer whose goals were focused on helping young children and their families that were referred to them by a physician. This experience opened my eyes and confirmed to me that it is important to educate the younger generation, so they understand the importance of diet and physical activity. At times, it was heartbreaking to see the youngest of children who were so obese they could not walk due to their weight. These encounters reaffirmed my drive and desire to be a dietitian, so I can help people live healthy and happy lives without limitations.
