Please join us for the End Hunger Challenge, our online anti-hunger learning experience in October. Volunteers who complete the course will receive a certificate noting 15 hours of community service at the end.
Through daily lessons, including readings, videos, podcasts, online discussions and more, participants build their knowledge and advocacy skills to end hunger in their communities. Participants like Eva T., who writes, "I was able to take away a lot from this course, from the basics of what hunger is, to who goes through it, the causes an solutions, and how to advocate against it. As I progressed through this course, I found myself looking forward to what i would be able to learn on each new day!"
The challenge is free and open to the public, so register online here: https://hungercenter.org/end-hunger-in-30-challenge/and join Eva and the thousands of other participants in Zero Hunger Academy. (Interested in taking the challenge with your co-workers, volunteers, board of directors or student group? We want to hear from you - email Liz Pearce, LPearce@hungercenter.org for information about partnership opportunities.)

Mission Statement
Our mission is to develop, inspire, and connect leaders in the movement to end hunger, and to advocate for public policies that create a food-secure world.
Description
We invest in the development of emerging leaders in the movement to end hunger in the United States and around the world. We strive to engage leaders, especially leaders who have experienced hunger and poverty and leaders of color, in bridging the gap between field and policy, community and Congress, theory and practice. Our programs:
Bill Emerson National Hunger Fellowship: A one-year program combining anti-hunger work in local communities across the United States with policy-level experience in Washington, D.C.
MIckey Leland International Hunger Fellowship: A two-year program where participants learn professional and leadership skills while strengthening food and nutrition security around the world.
Zero Hunger Internship: A ten-week summer program for college students and recent graduates to develop their leadership skills and gain on-the-job experience with anti-hunger organizations across the country.
Zero Hunger Academy: Our food security and leadership development curriculum is also available as an online learning experience for individuals or networks seeking to expand their knowledge on domestic and global hunger.
