Lead at your institution — and your leadership may help support your own immersion.
As an Institutional Ambassador, you help bring Help2Serve.Care opportunities to your institution through authentic peer-to-peer outreach. Share the experience, build awareness, answer questions, and connect interested people with opportunities that align with their interests.
Your role is about connection and engagement — introducing colleagues and peers to international service and helping turn individual interest into a community ready to participate. There is no charter to file and no committee to form.

As an Institutional Ambassador or Institutional Program Leader, you can play an important role in bringing people together around meaningful international service-learning opportunities. Through peer outreach, engagement at your institution, and leadership, you help build awareness, connect interested people with Help2Serve.Care, and contribute to the development of a qualifying cohort.
Your leadership can help support your own immersion. In recognition of meaningful leadership and contribution to cohort development, eligible Institutional Ambassadors and Institutional Program Leaders may receive full program-cost coverage for the 14-day Phase One Service-Learning Immersion and the optional 7-day Phase Two Cultural Exploration, and a leadership honorarium, and thus also eligible round-trip economy airfare.

Adds a written reference and portfolio-ready documentation of your leadership.
Adds Founding Leader standing with Help2Serve.Care.
The minimum cohort of 20 participants may be developed collectively. Institutional Ambassadors, Institutional Program Leaders, and other approved partners at your institution may all contribute to the development of the same cohort.
Your eligibility is based on documented leadership, meaningful peer engagement, and contribution to cohort development. Individual leaders are not required to independently generate the minimum cohort of 20 participants.
Exact cohort levels and award amounts are confirmed when you apply — and we’ll help you plan toward the level you’re aiming for. On top of the award, we help your whole group fundraise, so cost is not the thing that stops anyone.
The Leadership Program is designed to recognize people who take an active role in building awareness at their institution, strengthening peer engagement, and creating a community around service-learning.
Program-cost awards recognize this broader leadership contribution and are not represented as payment for individual referrals.
All awards and travel benefits are subject to Help2Serve.Care eligibility requirements, applicable program terms, and any relevant policies or approvals of your institution.
