(WASHINGTON, DC) August 15, 2016 – Arab America, the leading provider of digital media to the Arab American community, announced today the launch of the Arab America Ambassador Network.

Arab America is seeking passionate, responsible, and dedicated students, professionals, and institutions around the nation to serve as Ambassadors for Arab America. There are three Ambassador categories for which to apply; Intern, Representative, and Blogger.

Interns will gain many valuable skills in social media, research, writing, event planning, and community outreach at our office in Washington, DC.

Representatives will connect with businesses, organizations, and leaders on campus or in local cities to promote Arab America’s message and attend events.

Bloggers will provide written or visual content for our digital media platform about news and culture to help keep the community informed and united.

“It’s our duty as a community institution to inspire members of our community to face challenges, make the extra effort, and become a life long contributor to a better world,” said Dr. Amal David, Director of Community Outreach at Arab America.

The Ambassador Network is designed to empower young community members and promote understanding between Arab Americans and the greater American society. The Ambassador Network represents an effort to unite the communities through capacity building, while amplifying Arab America’s effectiveness as a resource that offers accurate information on Arab Americans and the Arab World.

Each position offers opportunities for personal growth, as well as integration into the growing Arab American community. Make your voice heard and uplift the rich heritage of Arab Americans where you live so that together, we can create content that represents our narratives and enhances understanding of Arabs everywhere.
