Emerging Advocacy Fund
MAZON’s Emerging Advocacy Fund was created in 2017, centered around a simple theory of change: to eliminate food insecurity in the United States, there must be a robust, trained, and organized community of advocates working to end hunger. After three decades seeding, supporting, and strengthening the anti-hunger advocacy movement, MAZON’s Emerging Advocacy Fund has invested millions in 19 states and Puerto Rico.
