Become a Baddie Ambassador

Join the Movement. Amplify the Mission. Reimagine Survivorship.

The Baddie Ambassador Program is a leadership and advocacy initiative by For the Breast of Us designed to uplift women of color impacted by breast cancer and equip them with the tools to advocate, educate, and connect. Ambassadors are the heart of our mission: the women who bring our pillars of Making spACE: Advocacy, Community, and Education to life in their local communities, nationally, and across digital spaces.

The Baddie Ambassador Program offers an opportunity to transform lived experience into leadership. As a trusted voice in your community, you’ll help amplify FTBOU’s mission, connect women of color to life-changing resources, and show up boldly at events and advocacy spaces that need our presence. Along the way, you’ll grow your skills, expand your network, and step into your power as a storyteller, educator, and change agent.
