If you don’t post on social media or join Discord, participation in the program may be challenging. Ambassadors do everything they can to share BigFuture often with as many people as possible. Every Ambassador will have their own link to share with friends. If you don’t use social media, sharing your link and participating in Ambassador programming will be hard. Ambassadors also use Discord to stay in touch with each other and the BigFuture team.

Every Ambassador will receive their own link and QR code to regularly share BigFuture throughout the spring. We will share also social media images to help you continuously share how BigFuture.org helps students own their future.

Past Ambassadors stepped up because they wanted to help their friends. They also appreciated the recognition they earn for their leadership. BigFuture will notify your school if you’re selected for the program. You can also include this activity on your college applications or resume. Ambassadors can earn merch through our competitions that recognize students for sharing BigFuture.org with their links and QR codes.

The demand for this program is greater than the number of students we’re able to support, which is why we have an application. We hope to grow more in the future.
