Rashford persuaded the government to provide underprivileged kids in the UK food vouchers worth £15 a week throughout the summer.

In order to provide meals for schoolchildren impacted by the coronavirus outbreak, the England international also donated £20 million.

Rashford was chosen to be on the cover of the renowned magazine because of his diligence off the field.

He will be featured on the front cover alongside Adwoa Aboah, a model and mental health advocate.

Misan Harriman took pictures of the inspirational couple on set with a mostly black crew.

In Vogue’s 104-year existence, Misan is the first black male photographer to have shot a cover.

Speaking to Vogue, Rashford has revealed the reasons behind his charitable work.

He said: “I’m by no means a politician but I had a voice and a platform that could be used to at least ask the questions.

“If I didn’t put myself out there and say, ‘This is not OK and it needs to change,’ I would have failed my 10-year-old self.”

Before he added: “As an athlete, failure is part of everyday life.

“You lose a game, you bounce back for the next one.

“You lose in a cup final, you come back stronger next season.”
