Volunteer with a Youth Violence Non Profit
Become an Ambassador of Kindness
As an official Rachel’s Challenge volunteer, Ambassadors of Kindness can choose from three main categories: Awareness Building, Fundraising, and Donation of Services. We will provide you with toolkits and resources to help you help us!
Awareness Building
The people who live in a community, and parents with children in local schools, are the best, most qualified voices to speak for change.
When you advocate to bring Rachel’s Challenge to your community, you’re working to bring hope to your school by promoting kindness, compassion, acceptance, and respect. These learned behaviors promote safer learning environments, leading to emotional and academic success. It’s a simple and direct way to improve mental health for students and schools.
This Tool Kit provides information you can share with your school officials, PTA/PTO, other concerned parents and community members, and potential funding organizations to help bring Rachel’s Challenge to your school.
The Kit includes downloadable documents introducing Rachel’s Challenge and its impact. There are also videos designed to make it simple for you to share Rachel’s Challenge with others.
Join us as an Ambassador of Kindness, and help us save lives by advocating for safer, more connected schools in your community.

Fundraising
We do everything we can to keep the cost of our programs as low as possible. We also do all we can to assist engaged community members raise money to bring our Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) and mental health programs into their schools.
