Kawanaa Carter, MD
Chosen Nonprofit: Infinite Giving, Inc
I want to take a moment and introduce myself. I am Kawanaa Carter. I am a resident of Carmichael. I am a wife, a parent, a physician, mentor, and community advocate. I am your neighbor and proud to be a part of this community.
I co-founded a nonprofit organization called Infinite Giving. Our sole purpose is to give to those in need. We support the unhoused population, particularly women and children in the greater Sacramento area and surrounding counties. We founded the Del paso heights vaccination clinic during the height of the pandemic and vaccinated more than 20,000 Sacramento residents. We provide scholarships to young people from underserved communities who wish to pursue higher education. I, along with my family, are fierce advocates for the proposed Carmichael Park skatepark. These are just a few of the grassroots efforts and organizations we believe and support. Others include Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA); a volunteer organization that protects children’s rights in court, The Mustard Seed School, Sharing God’s Bounty, The Sacramento Food Bank and The Oak Park Homeless Advocacy Clinic.
Community service and advocacy are extremely important to me. Each of us has a role to play in helping our community thrive and I want to work with you to keep Carmichael a happy place to live and work.
