About this event
You are cordially invited to attend the 2021 Hunger Leadership Awards!
Each year, the Hunger Leadership Awards brings together leaders from government, philanthropy, the private sector, and the wider anti-hunger community to recognize exemplary leaders in the fight to end hunger, including members of Congress, corporate citizens, community leaders, and outstanding alums from the Hunger Center’s fellowship programs whose vision and commitment are paving the way to achieving zero hunger, both in the U.S. and around the world. This year’s theme is Leadership Matters, because hunger is solvable but not without bold and effective leadership.
Founded in 1993 by a bipartisan group of Members of Congress, the Congressional Hunger Center fights hunger by developing leaders and advocating for public policies that will create a food secure world. Through its through its Bill Emerson National Hunger Fellowship, Mickey Leland International Hunger Fellowship, Zero Hunger Internship, and online learning hub Zero Hunger Academy, the Hunger Center has trained more than 1,000 leaders working across the private, public, and nonprofit sectors toward a day when all people have access to affordable, nutritious, and culturally appropriate food.
