Chef Ron began volunteering for LADACIN in 2018. He visited monthly and spoke with clients in the Ocean Access Program about cooking, adaptive techniques, and the use of spices. Through his instruction the clients learned how to prepare food for themselves, making them more self-sufficient.
Chef Ron participates in many of LADACIN’s fundraisers including the annual 95.9 WRAT Rock Open Charity Golf Classic. He also trained for and ran in the 2019 NJ Marathon for Team LADACIN, raising over $36,000 for the Agency, of which he personally raised over $2,000.
