Ambassador Program

Each year, community-minded employers lend key personnel to United Way of West Florida to serve as ambassadors. By volunteering their time each month, these individuals help raise funds to meet critical needs in our community. Each ambassador supports between three to five companies by planning and implementing successful fundraising campaigns. To do this, ambassadors receive leadership training and several opportunities to learn more about the United Way of West Florida's internal programs and funded programs that address the gaps in education, health, and financial stability.
