Earning It

You may already understand that People to People Ambassador Programs offers students thrilling adventures, cross-cultural encounters, and the kind of global understanding that will set them apart for years to come. But there are even more benefits to be gained for students who invest in making the journey happen.

Every year, there are Ambassadors who raise their entire program tuition, and a majority earn some of their funds. Take it from these past Ambassadors—paying your way to your student international programs gives you the chance to:

• Turn a passion into tuition (if you're like alum Elizabeth Lester, you may even grow your temporary fundraiser into a lasting business!)
• Gain valuable life skills in planning and promoting events and sales
• Develop the confidence that comes from setting and achieving your own goals
• Practice presenting yourself and your goals to potential sponsors
• Meet challenges with creative solutions
• Reward yourself for a job well done with an amazing journey!

You don't have to go it alone

There's a whole community of Ambassadors ready to share their success with you! Some host informative webinars to explain how they paid for their student international programs. Others describe their recipes for successful fundraisers.

You might also discover a great team closer to home if you join with fellow Ambassadors on a money-making event or get your community excited to support your efforts.

And of course, we at People to People Ambassador Programs are here for you too. We've collected handy tools to keep you organized and are continually adding scholarships, contests, and sweepstakes to help you on your way.

Then when you've felt the exhilaration of paying your own way, you can pay it forward—using your experience to inspire students just like you!
