Adela Trujillo          FRANCIS  GRISET  MEMORIAL AWARD 
$500 Award
Adela quickly obtained the respect of the Interview Committee as she described how important a proper diet is to our health. Fighting the stereotype of a single teen Mother, Adela has instilled these good eating habits in her young son.  Being a single Mom, maintaining a home, volunteering within the community, working full time and attending school is just part of the daily challenges Adela  masters each day. Her approach to enjoying life and good nutrition is a great example.
