Marcus Rashford’s outstanding performance off the field has earned him recognition.

Rashford convinced the government to give food vouchers worth £15 a week to disadvantaged children in the UK during the summer.

The England international also contributed £20 million to help feed kids affected by the coronavirus outbreak.

Rashford’s hard work off the pitch earned him a spot on the cover of the esteemed publication.

Alongside model and mental health campaigner Adwoa Aboah, he will be on the front cover.

With a largely black crew, Misan Harriman photographed the inspirational pair on site.

Misan is the first black male photographer to shoot a cover for Vogue in its 104-year history.

Rashford discussed the motivations behind his charity endeavors in an interview with Vogue.

I’m not a politician by any means, but I did have a voice and a platform that allowed me to at least pose the questions, he stated.

“I would have failed my 10-year-old self if I hadn’t stood up and told myself, ‘This is not OK and it needs to change.'”

“As an athlete, failure is a part of everyday life,” he said before continuing.

“You recover for the next game after losing the previous one.

“You bounce back stronger the following season after losing in a cup final.”
