The JDRF Central Oklahoma Youth Ambassadors are children & youth with type 1 diabetes (T1D), age 18 and under, who are involved with the educational and volunteer efforts of JDRF’s Central Oklahoma Branch. They are the “face” of JDRF in Central Oklahoma. This group will contribute to increased awareness in our community and have the opportunity to volunteer at various events for JDRF. The JDRF Youth Ambassador Program will also provide social opportunities to all members to promote friendship, support of each other and good times!
Would you like to work with other kids to spread awareness and help with the fight of T1D?
If you are 18 and under and would like to:
- Volunteer to support and represent JDRF at events
- Socialize with other T1D kids or teens
- Make a DIFFERENCE!
…..Then the Youth Ambassador program is for you!
There are many exciting and meaningful ways that kids and teens of all ages can participate! Parent support is typically necessary; however, child/youth involvement is a must!
What to look forward to as a JDRF Youth Ambassador:
- Volunteering Opportunities
- Media Appearances
- Promoting T1D Awareness
- Government Advocacy
