The Humanity's Team Global Council has unanimously chosen Marianne Williamson as the recipient of the 2020 Spiritual Leadership Award.

Marianne’s contributions to humanity over her entire career, and especially the past year, have inspired a seismic shift in the global conversation, and her spiritual leadership is helping to steer us in a healthier, more compassionate, and loving direction.

For over three decades, Marianne has been a leader in progressive spiritual and religious circles. Her speeches, seminars and books have inspired us to take courageous action in civil society, business, government, and social outreach. 

Since 1989, Marianne's Project Angel Food has delivered more than 12 million meals to ill and dying homebound patients. In 2004, she co-founded the Peace Alliance and supported the creation of a U.S. Department of Peace. In addition to her activism in poverty and anti-hunger issues, she has also been vocal about racial reconciliation issues, advocating for slavery reparations since the 1990s. She was the first candidate in the 2020 presidential primary season to make it a pillar of her campaign.   

Marianne Williamson is respected on every continent and by every faith, and she uses her prominent platform to address the many challenges we face, promote forgiveness, and demonstrate the power of Love.
