In a world that feels increasingly chaotic, it helps to have something you can shape: your career, your community, and the future of our profession. Thatโ€™s what being part of MAND is all about.

When you join MAND, youโ€™re not just signing up for discounts or CEUs (though those are great perks). Youโ€™re choosing to stand with Minnesota dietitians who are pushing for better pay, stronger licensure protections, and nutrition-positive policies that help real people in our state access the food and care they deserve.

Todayโ€™s the day to Give to the Max! ๐ŸŒŸLetโ€™s do this together and make an impact for nutrition professionals by clicking the link and donating NOW!

The MAND Foundation is dedicated to strengthening the future of nutrition and dietetics in Minnesota through scholarships, training, and educational opportunities. We are also aware that many families are facing new challenges due to recent reductions in SNAP benefits, increasing the need for accessible nutritious food. To help meet this need, 10% of all Give to the Max donations will be shared with The Food Group, The 2025 MAND Golden Apple Award winner, honoring their incredible work in hunger relief and equitable food across Minnesota.

Your gift this year has a double impact by supporting both the advancement of dietetics and the health of our communities. Like, comment, tag a friend and repost to share with others in your community! https://conf.eatrightmn.org/sp/73223f83c52
