- GLO Ambassadors Make First Public Appearance
After months of program development, including developing a logo and branding material, website content, and project management guides, the Grassroots Leadership Opportunities (GLO) Ambassadors Program was ready to announce its new partnership with The Greenway Foundation at the annual Reception at the River.
Our Grassroots
Even before GLO was a part of The Greenway Foundation, its members were transforming Colorado communities through grassroots, youth-driven efforts. These organizations, Five Points Youth Ambassadors and No Name Youth Ambassadors, form the foundation of GLO.
Becoming a youth ambassador was sort of a serendipitous moment. When I first joined, I thought I would primarily be involved with helping to design the creek, then perform community outreach. Which, by no means, is a “small” part of the job. But I also was surprised to find how many opportunities there were for me to apply outside passions to my work. Whether it was videography, photography, writing, or design, I found it fascinating how I could develop my creativity in meaningful and enriching ways.
