Become a Giving Blitz Ambassador
Multiply your impact by creating your own personal fundraising page and rallying your network for the 48-hour Blitz.
Until the most exciting 48 hours in Tri-Cities fundraising history!
Amplify Your Impact Through Your Network
We need ambassadors like YOU to really maximize our reach with the Giving Blitz. As an ambassador, you become a champion for Columbia Ability Alliance within your own circles – friends, family, coworkers, and social networks.
It’s easy to directly fundraise on behalf of Columbia Ability Alliance through our ambassador crowdfunding platform. All it takes is a few clicks to sign up and create your personalized fundraising page! There is no obligation or minimum requirement to create a personal fundraising page, but if you have any questions about participating, please reach out to our Philanthropy team.
