Student Ambassadors 

We welcome high school students passionate about making an impact.

At United Way of Greater Nashville, we welcome the power of community voices to amplify our mission. Student Ambassadors are leaders who inspire volunteerism in their schools and communities. They actively participate in United Way events, recruit peers, and help spread awareness about giving back. Completion of the program comes with certification, recognition, and meaningful impact on our community.

  • Table at 2 school events to promote United Way volunteer opportunities (materials will be provided).
  • Actively recruit peers to join as ambassadors and get involved in community service!
