How Ambassadors Serve

Brand Ambassadors promote external education and outreach by communicating through select podiums and media. They speak at regional events and represent Opportunity at association or affinity group gatherings in their area.

Advisory Ambassadors

Rainmaker Ambassadors

Rainmaker Ambassadors connect their personal networks to Opportunity's mission. They share about Opportunity with their personal and professional networks, host education and outreach events, lead Insight Trips, create community among groups of donors, and make key introductions.
