Community Ambassadors link local nonprofit agencies with the people, programs, and resources on FSU's campus.
Each ambassador works with one local agency for a full academic year, learning the inner workings of that agency. Ambassadors bring knowledge of their agencies to Florida State, connecting campus and community. An ambassador's knowledge of their agency's specific service needs, combined with the center's resources, create opportunities for positive, sustainable change through the university and the local community.
Ambassadors can gain:
- Hands-on experience with a nonprofit aligned with your interests
- One-on-one mentorship, biweekly professional development meetings, and networking opportunities
- $750 stipend per semester (contingent on milestone completion)
- Transcript notation for service hours
Requirements:
- FSU undergraduates in good academic standing (minimum 2.0 GPA)
- Entering at least their second year of study at the university
- Enrolled in at least 12 credit hours for both fall and spring semesters
- Committed to 7 hours per week and attendance for both semesters
