Become an Ambassador and help transform children’s lives LIVING IN POVERTY

BECOME AN AMBASSADER

See the Need, Find Solution.

Do you share our vision, “offering underprivileged children’s educational opportunities”? Then you probably have what it takes to become a charity ambassador for TOUCEO.
We are looking for friends and supporters to become volunteer ambassadors. We want to form a new network of adults and young people across the UK, France, Uganda, and the rest of the world who can act as ambassadors for the charity by becoming the face of TOUCEO in their workplaces, communities, schools, and universities.
From raising awareness of how we are transforming the lives of disadvantaged young people to organising fundraising events and encouraging people to volunteer at one of our projects, ambassadors are a vital source of support for our work.

What does an Ambassador do?

There are many ways that you can support us as an ambassador:

  • Volunteer at one of our international projects
  • Fundraising
  • Raise awareness
  • Support us at events

Please see the role specification bellow for the full details on what it means to be an ambassador.

How to become an Ambassador?

Fill out the enquiry form bellow.
We’ll send you an Ambassador Pack, full of ideas and materials to help you in your new role. We’ll also be there to give you any other support or advice that you may need.

As an ambassador, you will play an important part in increasing our awareness. This could include:

  • Posting updates on social media
  • Posting updates on social media
  • Putting up posters or making our newsletters available in your community, Church, workplace, university or school.
  • Talking about us
  • Ambassadors will also help us to fundraise by either organising small-scale fundraising events in their community, workplace, churches, university, or school; or by supporting events/an event that TOUCEO are running, such as sponsored walks, or stalls at community events.

Time Commitment

We ask for 1-2 hours per month as a guide, but we know that this might not always be possible. An average month for a volunteer Ambassador might look like this:

  1. Putting up posters in their local community, workplace, or school
  2. Speaking to people you know about TOUCEO and the important work that we do
  3. Advertising our volunteer scheme and child sponsorship scheme programme
  4. Speaking to people who are interested in becoming an ambassador
  5. Having a catch-up with the Volunteer Coordinator to find out about upcoming events – this will likely be done by email
  6. Sharing posts on social media

Aside from this, we ask that you support us with 2 fundraising events per year. This can either be fundraising events that you wish to do yourself, or you can support us by taking part in a Team event. This can mean either taking part in our events such as barn dance, showing support for us at finishing lines, or helping to run stalls at community fairs etc.
