Alumni are the strongest link in CHC’s anti-hunger network, and while many of you are still well connected to CHC and your “fellow Fellows” we encourage you to reconnect, if you’ve been out of touch.
Due to generous support from the ConAgra Foods Foundation, the Congressional Hunger Center is establishing a training and conference fund for Emerson National Hunger Fellow Program alumni. Opportunities for training and professional development in the field of hunger and poverty alleviation exist in the form of conferences and trainings all over the country, but they require an investment of resources that few non-profit professionals nor their financially strapped employers tend to have available. By providing continued leadership development opportunities for alumni after they complete the fellowship, CHC hopes to strengthen the impact of alumni work, and expand their future leadership potential.
Alumni are encouraged to apply for conference or training funds anytime between now and April 1, 2012. Applications will be considered on a rolling basis and CHC will provide up to $1,000 for registration and travel expenses for accepted applications until the funds are depleted.
