The recipient of the 2018 National Leader of the Year award is
Marrin Scalone, leader of the Girl Talk chapter in Montpelier, VA.
Marrin was selected for this prestigious award for best
exemplifying the mission and values of Girl Talk.
“It is our honor to present Marrin with a scholarship for her
college career,” said Dawn Zier, CEO of Nutrisystem, Inc. “As a
Company with a mission driven focus, we applaud Marrin’s commitment
to helping others improve their lives. It’s wonderful to see so
many young, confident women that emerge from Girl Talk’s mentoring
program and we’re proud of our association with this
organization.”
Nutrisystem has been a partner of Girl Talk since 2015, having
announced the partnership in conjunction with the Company’s
#NowBelieveIt campaign, a social empowerment initiative that
highlights the positive power that compliments play in the lives of
women and girls.
The scholarship Marrin received will be used toward her college
career. She is currently registered to attend community college in
Blacksburg, Virginia this fall with the hopes of transferring to
Virginia Tech.
“The reason that Girl Talk is so incredibly special is because
it gives girls the opportunity to both be a mentor and discover a
mentor of their own,” said Marrin, recipient of the 2018 National
Leader of the Year award. “I’ve been blessed with my own mentors
through Girl Talk and have also been able to become one to young
girls.”
She added, “I have found my career because of Girl Talk. The
confidence this organization has given me on speaking out and
educating on mental health has propelled me into choosing a future
in counseling services. I have never been so excited for my future
and my potential impact on the world. Girl Talk gave me the
confidence to reach for my full potential and that is something I
will never forget.”
“Marrin is an amazing Girl Talk Leader and has helped so many
other young women facing struggles in their lives,” said Haley
Kilpatrick, Founder of Girl Talk. “By overcoming her own obstacles,
Marrin found grace and beauty in becoming a leader and exemplifies
all that we stand for at Girl Talk. She is truly inspiring.”
Marrin’s photo and biography will be displayed on the Girl Talk
website for the next year.
In addition to its partnership with Girl Talk, Nutrisystem is
involved in its local community through ongoing support of the
American Heart Association Go Red for Women Campaign and the
American Diabetes Association Step Out: Walk to Stop Diabetes.
Additionally, individual employees lead Company participation year
round in various community service projects.
