| member of the Feeding America Policy Engagement and Advocacy | ||
| Committee and the Feeding Texas board; she has strongly advocated | ||

| Service Award; her other accolades include the Beacon Award for | ||
| Excellence in Organizational Leadership from the Nonprofit | ||
| Management Center, the Heritage Foundation Award for Humanities, | ||
| and the Salvation Army Unsung Hero Award; and | ||
