Michelle Hurn, RD on the Need for Protein in Food Pantries

After her own health crisis, registered dietitian Michelle Hurn quit clinical practice and turned her focus to getting meat and other animal-based foods to people in need. Michelle’s new venture, The Protein Project, works directly with food pantries to help them get high-quality food like meat, cheese, and eggs.

Check out their first fundraiser to get holiday turkeys to patrons of food pantries!
