Honoring: Marian Wright Edelman and Peter Edelman
The Coalition on Human Needs works every day to protect low-income people from federal cutbacks and to help them rise out of poverty. We’ve empowered tens of thousands of advocates with the information and tools they need to slow down and stop bad policies. Please help us continue this work by joining us in honoring Marian Wright Edelman and Peter Edelman as our 2019 Human Needs Heroes!
Every year, the Coalition on Human Needs gathers advocates in our community, from neophytes to veterans with decades of experience, to celebrate our steadfast commitment to standing up for the most vulnerable in our society. And we’ve got a lot to celebrate: We’ve stood up against harmful cuts to programs like SNAP and worked to increase funding for human needs programs; fought for a fair and accurate Census; resisted attacks on immigrants; and much more.
Of course, these accomplishments are only possible thanks to the tireless work of generations of change-makers. That’s why we are especially thrilled to honor Marian Wright Edelman and Peter Edelman for their historic leadership in advancing the cause of the most needy, advocating for children and youth and their families and for racial and economic justice.

This is our only in-person fundraising event of the year and all proceeds raised go to supporting the work of the Coalition on Human Needs. Contributions are tax-deductible as provided by law.
If you have any questions, please reach out to Nicolai Haddal, Field and Events Coordinator at [email protected] or 202-223-2532 x115.
We can’t wait to see you on September 18th!
