THROW A LETTER-WRITING PARTY!
Dear Ambassadors,
We don't exist without you!
You make our mission a reality. You make acts-of-kindness and community service a priority, and build empathy in your community - and across the nation. It's a fact; the more we build a young friend's capacity for empathy by having them step-into-the-shoes of a victim, the less he, she or they will bully. You are part of the solution. Thank you for choosing the Be A Friend Project to make a difference!
YOU ARE OUR HEROES AND OUR HEART!
PLEASE STAY FRIEND STRONG WITH US.
Share the Be A Friend Project on social media, in your schools and communities. Show the world how much you love us! To get updates right to your inbox, join the Ambassador email group by sending an email to jennifer@beafriendproject.org with "Add me to your Ambassador emails" in the subject line - and send! It's Easy!
Ambassadors receive email notifications when a new Friend Mail Recipient is listed on our website or when surprise Friend Mail has been delivered. Simply send an email from your address with "Add me to your Ambassador mailing list" in the subject line - DONE!
The Be A Friend Project will never share your contact information with anyone without permission. Contact information, addresses and last names of all under-18 Ambassadors and Recipients stay safely within the Be A Friend Project office. Contact information will never be released without permission.
Be sure to list "Be A Friend Project Ambassador" on your resumes and applications. You are an Ally and an Upstander. Potential employers, organizations and schools will want you on their team! We will also sign Community Service Hours forms.
There is no time commitment. You can choose not to write certain Friend Mail Recipients and you can stop writing letters altogether. We know life can get busy and sometimes we have to take care of ourselves and our personal responsibilities before we can help support others. You are greatly appreciated for any amount of time spent as an Ambassador!
