2023-2024 AMBASSADOR APPLICATIONS ARE OPEN!
 

APIAVote is recruiting a brand new cohort of Ambassador organizations to gear up for the 2023-2024 election season! This program will engage passionate AAPI student organizations to develop and implement a voter engagement program for their respective campuses and AAPI communities through regular webinars, training, online hangouts, one-on-one advising, development of materials, technical assistance, and operational funding. 

The focus of the program is to build power for AAPI youth on college campuses and activate the AAPI community in civic and political participation. Ambassadors organizations will be key in coordinating volunteer and team recruitment, voter registration drives, get-out-the-vote programs on their campus, educating their campus community on current AAPI topics, and building sustainable programming on campus. 

We are accepting applications on a rolling basis.
