V4A Balozi Club Program supports Vitendo4africa projects through social, educational and fundraising events. V4A Ambassador is anyone who is committed to V4A mission, goals, and values. These individuals work in the organization as volunteers, mentors, board members and community advocates. As mission ambassador, you are out talking about the causes you support and the mission of the organization you belong to.
Who Can Be a Mission Ambassador?
Anyone who believes in the overall mission of Vitendo4africa is eligible to become a Mission Ambassador. These are people who volunteer their time, sit on boards, donate money, attend events, and work to meet the same goal that Vitendo4africa was created to meet.

How Can Mission Ambassadors Make a Difference?
1. Social Media
Mission ambassadors don't need 15,000 followers to make an impact. They just need to have an engaged group of people who are also willing to spread the word. Ambassadors can quickly share V4A information with their followers. Create images to share or a hashtag for our events to help provoke engagements.
2. Networking or Speaking Engagements
Not all of your ambassadors will feel comfortable sharing our contents all the time. We encourage ambassadors to share messages in a way that is most comfortable for them. You represent V4A at networking or fundraising events, conferences, or wherever people are engaged.
3. Blog Posts
Every month, approximately 60 million new blog posts are published, and 409 million people view 22 billion pages. Are any of your already blogging or interested in blogging? Please write something about V4A and link it back to V4A website, www.vitendo4africa.org. Not only would this help increase our presence among your networks, but the linking will also get Google's attention.
